We set out early today around Bde Maka Ska. We took our time drawing the experience out in anticipation of the snow storm. Kenobi focused on the ice and attempted to hit water through it. There was a pair of geese resting on the ice as we made our way around the beach on... Continue Reading →
Blue Moon, March 31, 2018
Just sharing our photos from our outing last night at Bde Maka Ska. It was just above 20 degrees with a gusty wind sent from Canada, so Kenobi was dancing around a bit, and we could only be out a short time.

Other than these short excursions, we haven't done much... Continue Reading →
