One gray day seems to roll in after another. The saying is that November is the gray month but December has been this year.
Rolling In
Last Wednesday, near Outer Island on Lake Superior, 17 foot waves were recorded and smaller waves crashed the shores in the morning, but even with a stormy day, the sun managed to peak out just before it set, giving a red glow on the fresh sandy beach where the seagulls felt the mist from the smaller waves still rolling in.

A calm day on Lake Superior at Meyers Beach with Eagle Island on the horizon and the sea caves located on the far point of land. Part of the fun combing the beaches is to look for rocks and driftwood. Finding the unique and interesting piece is always a fun adventure and it always makes me wonder how far the driftwood had traveled; did it come from the mainland or from one of the nearby Apostle Islands or did it come all the way across the lake from the Canadian side.
For some reason I wasn’t able to put this piece of driftwood in my pocket but it made a nice spot to sit while listening to the gentle waves rolling in.
