High atop Brockway Mountain in Copper Country

The very most northern Point of the Upper Peninsula

September 27, 2020 - Sunday morning

54 degrees/partly cloudy/calm winds

Pentoga Road

I arrived home from my early morning walk Saturday and asked Sargie if she'd like to take a drive and look at the last of this year's leaves.

When it comes to taking a road trip, I don't have to ask Sargie twice.

We drove straight west to the shores of Lake Superior, then followed the shoreline north through the Porcupine Mountains and onto the Keweenaw Peninsula and Copper Harbor, the most northern point in the UP.

At any rate, the pictures tell the story, so enjoy.

 

We arrived home last night amid a horrible storm that dumped 2.1 inches of rain. Total rainfall for the past forty eight hours on Pentoga Road? Four inches even.

It can dry up anytime it wants. Naturally, more rain is forecast to fall Monday and sporadically throughout the week with temperatures in the mid forties.

I'm heading out the door for my usual morning hike. Since it's too wet to do anything outdoors, today appears to be a shop day... or possibly nap day... or both!

After all, a man's work is never done.

So are the tales from Pentoga Road...
