End of Summer at Leech Lake in Minnesota
We have the good fortune of having generous friends with a place on Leech Lake near Walker, where we joined them for the long Labor Day weekend.Leech Lake is a large, shallow lake, ideal for fishing and water sports. However, its distance from the Twin Cities metro area (about four hours) limits the number of people who vacation here. There is still undeveloped shoreline and, even on a holiday weekend, there are seldom more than a few boats visible at any given time. It is a lovely, relatively quiet retreat. Our friend’s place is at Trapper’s Landing, a resort that also offers various ownership options. It has a good location on the south end of the lake, with a scenic island just offshore and a nice beach. You are being transferred to the updated version of this post at Explorationvacation.net

All the signs have been pointing to the end of summer, but last Saturday was a perfect day to catch a bit of remaining summer sun at the beach. You are being transferred to the updated version of this post at Explorationvacation.net

The Gardens of Leif Ericson Park, Duluth, Minnesota
the Lakewalk takes visitors out of downtown along the lake shore. High above the shore, it provides great views of the harbor and the city’s signature lift bridge as it winds past art and plantings before running into the beautiful gardens at Leif Ericson Park You are being transferred to the updated version of this post at ExplorationVacation.net
Photo Thursday: Swaying Cattails
A weekend visit to Todd and Stearns counties in central Minnesota let me catch the landscape at the very moment when summer first begins to slide into fall. I can feel it in the air, see it in the fields and flowers – even as the beach fills with families enjoying a perfect summer weekend.
