New ice in northern Minnesota. Literally a thin skin on the water with unbelievable strength. Four inches of clear ice and a small car can drive on it (if there are no cracks, thin spots, snow ice, no wind to buckle it, no springs underneath, you don’t drive too fast, and other unforeseen issues) ifContinue reading “Ice Fishing and Christmas”

How do you greet the morning?
Like fire in the sky, the day came in a wonderment of colors. The clouds picked up and threw the reds at our little place in northern Minnesota. I put my coffee on the railing by the front door and snapped a few shots of the morning skyline by the drive. Nothing would be crossedContinue reading “How do you greet the morning?”
The Dark Side of Light
I often contemplate concepts too big to fully grasp. Sitting in the dark while waiting for the light is a part of hunting, camping, fishing, hiking, and much of the outdoor world that I love. I memorized a verse (John 1:5 in the Bible) and have thought about the multiple meanings of darkness not being ableContinue reading “The Dark Side of Light”
Ever feel like you are different?
While traveling in Colorado I took this shot because, well, I relate somehow. One Sheep is different but still part of the flock. I guess what makes me feel different the most is when I act impulsively. Maybe it’s a part of being on the high-end of the accident prone scale. Add a risk taking highContinue reading “Ever feel like you are different?”
Who needs an Anchor?
Deer I said to my wife as I looked out the window. “Yes” she said (I got out of that one by not saying “I wasn’t talking about you.”) Instead I said “look out the bay window”. The one fawn noticed as I clicked the camera and proceeded to watch until they disappeared into theContinue reading “Who needs an Anchor?”
I’m back and going forward
This will be a common scene on this lake as some of us will be pulling in walleye in 3 weeks at fishing camp in northern Minnesota.There is plenty of room by the way for more guys. I think there are guys coming from 5 states so far. So where have I been lately? LikeContinue reading “I’m back and going forward”
Wild Outdoor Adventures and Serious Fun
Nine of us embarked on a Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness Trip a few days ago. Nine of us (thankfully) came back out a few days later. High winds, swamped canoes, physical ability questions and extremely rugged territory redefined our plans. It’s one thing to look at a map and plan your adventure; quite anotherContinue reading “Wild Outdoor Adventures and Serious Fun”
STA…StoryTellers Anonymous
I thought it was a great idea! I could start an outdoors club in our area under the guise of “Storytellers Anonymous”. Cretian Certain relatives and friends would pay us to go!!!It would probably be a great fund raiser for the next high school band trip! I can see it now; Johnny to old auntContinue reading “STA…StoryTellers Anonymous”
>Gary Fultz on…The Steak or the Sizzle? Picture truth #7
> I know the smell and sizzle carried half a mile because that’s how far away the teenagers were when they came running. All to be eaten with black beans, rice, fresh onion, peppers, hot sauce, with fresh fish in an avocado burrito shell. This is as close as I hope to get toContinue reading “>Gary Fultz on…The Steak or the Sizzle? Picture truth #7”

> Famous-landscape and I was There! I took this picture a couple hundred yards from elk camp. Son Tim in the steep mountain timber Not much has changed from when the movie “true Grit” starring John Wayne, was made. The trees have changed. Some are new and some are gone.
