Off the Beaten Path

I love road trips! There is nothing like the open road, a reliable atlas and no schedule to feed that craving for exploration. With so many well-known landmarks and destination spots across the country, there is never a want for new places to see.

Sometimes you have the good fortune to stumble upon some pretty incredible places en route to these "destinations." That's just what happened to me last week as I was visiting some relatives in the Midwest. Never having seen much of the Upper Midwest, I set my sights on the Apostle Islands of Lake Superior. That destination became a stepping off point for several other small adventures. Here are few photos from the trip - enjoy! May your sense of discovery and exploration (and conservation!) never cease. :)
