Last stop at Superior

Well another trip up North. This one the last of the year with quite a few more people. The trip was originally set up to go Fly fishing for the annual Salmon run. Unfortunatly, all the rivers were to low from the drought this year. Meaning they literally weren't even able to get into the rivers because the water was actually cycling under the shore into the lake. A disappointment, but at least I didn't leave this year with out a fish because of a lack of Skills. Unlike last year. thousands of fish about and not a single bite.
The group this year was Me, Aaron, David, Jayne who was in visiting from Ireland. And the lone girl of the group. Poor thing...... Joshua, Mark, Jacob, Eric, Dave Douglas, And Jake Kuyu. The weather held off all weekend with only a few late fall showers passing through. Me, Jayne, and Aaron actually went swimming in Superior. Aaron and Jayne more then once. They actually went for a polar dip one morning. I DON'T want to say it was the lake where all men are created equal. But it was a wee bit cool.....To say a little.....But bearable.
We decided someone could make a small fortune selling bags of rocks to throw off Palisade head. And the last night was filled with Guitars, a huge bonfire, and singing that I am sure roused all of Split rock campground till 3 in the morning. Luckily the next day was sunday. Early the next morning Douglas came running up in his underwear, red lumber jack socks and boots. Wearing a gilligans hat asking who wanted to go for a swim. You had to be there.......
Fishing aside the weekend went well. Lot's of photo's, hikes, campfires, and 10 year whisky brought from Ireland. 4th year running now on the septmber tradition of Lake Superior. Hopefully one of these years we'll catch some fish.
