I drove to Tofte, MN on Friday afternoon to join Kyle & family for a 1 night vacation on Lake Superior.
The arrangement was that we would meet at Blue Fin Bay Resort.
Along the way I spotted on of the big freighters that I've seen entering the Duluth Harbor via their webcam. This one is usually carrying wind turbine parts.

| Her name is Happy River. Most of the great lake freighters are deep red and black, these Big Lift vessels really stand out in a crowd. |
I stopped at a busy Scenic Wayside on Highway 61 that has a view of Split Rock Lighthouse.
When I got out of the car I noticed a lot of bird activity in some bushes. For quite some time, I stood and watched & photographed a flock of Cedar Waxwings.
While most of the tourists were shooting at the lighthouse, or taking selfies with the lighthouse, I had my back to it and was watching these birds gorge themselves on ripe berries.
Eventually, I did take a shot of the Split Rock Lighthouse, always a stunning view.
More on our 1 day vacation later, but it was very fun.
