Weekend in Ironwood



















We got to spend this weekend in Ironwood. Saturday we had Joe's cousin's wedding to attend. The weather was beautiful. The wedding was also very nice. Once again it turned out to be a rather busy weekend. Still we got to visit with Phil and Judy a bit and took short walks in the wild.
Before the wedding we went to Superior Falls. Joe tried fishing the mouth of Montreal River... no fish, but we enjoyed the warm summer day.
Sunday on our way back we stopped at Agate Falls to fish downstream. Again, no luck except for a couple of bites. Still it was very nice to be out on the river on the warm afternoon. The last couple of weeks had been rather cool and not quite like mid-summer. We tend to complain when the temps go up to 90's up this north, but the reality is that it never lasts long before cooling down to below 60. We have to enjoy what's left of our short summer up north. Today after Joe gets off work, we are going to Apple Creek for fishing, since we realized we haven't gone fishing enough this summer.
P.S. It is officially the end of summer up here. The State Fair was last week. Truck loads of Wisconsin sweet corn has been coming up, too. Like summer, the sweet corn season doesn't last long. We'll enjoy these best corn as much as we can!
