Well, my husband finally downloaded our photos from a recent mini vacation that we took to
Lake Superior's North Shore area in Minnesota. We also stopped for one day in
Minneapolis to check out the
Midtown Global Market where I'll be participating in the
No Coast Craft-o-rama in December. We had a wonderful time on vacation and plan to go back for another one in the Spring if our budget and time permits. I'll try to put some simple captions on the photos for you. Enjoy!

This is the
Midtown Global Market building where the
No Coast Craft-o-rama will be held in December. It is a really cool building and a very neat ethnically diverse market. We bought a candle and some soap there that were handmade.

It rained most of the time on our trip and was quite cool too. Here you can see us overlooking Lake Superior in the rain. We're standing on the walkway of a lighthouse in the port at
Duluth.

This is just a leaf on the wet rocks at the
Glensheen Mansion in Duluth, but I thought that it was very pretty!

This is a photo that overlooks Lake Superior at night. I had to set the camera on our car hood and set the timer to get the photo to turn out. Then I also lightened it a bit in Photoshop, but I think it came out really cool!


These two photos are at
Gooseberry Falls State Park. Although it was wet, muddy, and rainy, it was still a lot of fun hiking around the Falls.

This is a photo off the shore of an artsy little town called
Grand Marais. We spent a day there walking around and checking out their lovely galleries and gift shops. We also ate at the
Angry Trout Cafe which I highly recommend.

And, this is overlooking
Duluth on a foggy night. I just thought it was a really nice photo to add. It is actually a very nice city with a lot of fun attractions and sites to see.
That's our trip in a nutshell. We did a LOT more than I have shown you here, but I liked all of these photos and thought that they were interesting enough to share. We took over 200 photos on the trip so I had to be a little picky to say the least. I hope that you like the one's that I've chosen for you.
Gorgeous photos. I have been to Duluth - such a lovely area!
