We heard from our friends about their return trip to Memphis and as we suspected and feared they were hammered by rain, hail and wind. Whew, glad they all made it back safe and sound but what a trip!
Our luck ran out today as we began in a light rain and it dogged us all day. We finally had to succumb and 'suit up' early on but the rain was never heavy - just enough to be an aggravation. But man was it ever chilly up here. It never made it to 60 and the low tonight is 48. Geeze Louise that is quite a contrast to Memphis where it is in the upper 90s.

Cold, did I say cold? Check out this snowfall thermometer style gauge. That is some serious snowfall!
390 Inches of snow. Sure glad I won't be up here for that.
Lake Superior looks more like and ocean. Expansive and very pretty.

Well here is a hint - the George Gipp memorial in Laurium, Michigan.
Now go do some research to learn the rest of this amazing story.
