Yesterday, Tim and I completed a journey that should have taken an hour (to the Faribault Goodwill to drop off a donation) but ended up taking two days. How glad we were that it did, for we were in the right place at the right time for an unexpected and refreshing cloudburst and then for spotting a full rainbow over the Minnesota countryside. The frustration of unexplained closed doors (Faribault Goodwill on Wednesday) coupled with not one but two northbournd detours on our route home inspired us to plot an alternate route and, in doing so, we saw something we needed to see on a heat-addled, hectic day.
We will keep these principals in mind on Saturday, as we meander through Wisconsin for a few nights on the edge of the Apostle Islands archipelago.
Wishing you beautiful surprises on your own journey!
LESLIE
Yes, my wise friend! I shall attempt to do that. Such a poetic image.
Love, Leslie
When life gives you rain, make rainbows 🌈
Hi Beth,
Thank you!
Yes, we will reprise our honeymoon 35 years ago. I am thinking of all the trips to Bayfield (including the one when you and I took Madeline on the ferry to Madeline Island!) overlaid on each other–a palimpset of memory. Stay tuned!
Love, Leslie
WOW! Great photos, Leslie. And there’s more to that story than you told us, I bet.
Didn’t realize you were heading out for the Apostles. Have a fabulous time.
XO
