I made many bow hunting trips to Salt Fork. The deer like to stay in the non-hunting zones like the golf course.

Yes they do and behind the lodge because everyone feeds them. Had to wait for a group of does to get off the fairway to hit our drives from the tee.

Loon on Kekekabic, June 16 about 3:38pm, on the Little Islands just north of the Big Island with the campsite. I've been wanting to get to Isle of Pine and Kekekabic since at least 2016, and I finally made it happen, rewarded with trout meals and a pair of loons swimming right up to my canoe in 2-3 feet of water! They were so close, I did not even have to crop this picture - full frame as displayed!

Brule Lake. Perfect morning."
Would love to hear more about this chili and lime spiced almonds recipe."
Sounds good, however I don't have a recipe for that. You must be thinking of someone else, sorry."
Well it is in the white strip on the right side of your photo, reversed!

Here’s my contribution to the December photo contest. It’s from about 35 years ago, with my dog-paddling friend Patches. We were paddling my first canoe, a poor young man’s 17’ Coleman Canoe. We were out on Saganaga. Patch’s pack is red, the canoe green, and so there ya go, December’s considerations… ??

Still nothing on mine. This is a film picture, before digital. I asked my wife if she had a recipe like that and she doesn't. I can't believe you can see it and I can't!!

MHS67: "You have got to be kidding! All that is on the photo I posted? Are you and geotramper the only ones that can see this? Unbelievable!!
Side note, not sure i would even like this recipe. "
LOL...no, i got all the ingredients but then googled the title of the recipe.
it is very faint but if you look closely at the photo attached, enlarge it even, you should be able to see the type.

Spider Wrapping a Headless Dragonfly
Clear Lake Aug 2021
Part of a web that appeared overnight. It stretched from the ground to over our heads and kept me from using my hammock for the better part of a day. The dragonfly had previously been decapitated in a ground battle with a wasp near our fire pit.

arctic: "Hurlburt Lake, Quetico?
"
Arctic, is this the campsite on west shore, just north of little feeder stream (which I have never seen), the one with the sandy "beach" area on south side? Stayed there on my first trip to Quetico with my soon-to-be husband. Special memories. Last time we stopped there (13-14 years ago), it was very overgrown and looked little or not used.
