The Apostle Islands

This past Thursday, Barbara and I took a two hour boat cruise on Lake Superior to explore the Apostle Islands. On this day the sky was mostly clear, the air was cool and crisp, which made for a very enjoyable time on the lake.

The Apostle Islands are part of the state of Wisconsin and made up of 13 islands of which our favorite was Devils Island with its wave carved sandstone, rock formations. This area has a rich history with its mining, logging, fishing, and shipping. In addition, there are numerous lighthouses here, which Barbara and I always enjoy. If you are ever in Wisconsin be sure to take a cruise on Lake Superior and visit the Apostle Islands. On this day I took approximately 60 photos and posted 24 of my favorites here. Take a look!
