Day 9...just a run in the green abyss




I'm playing catch-up from the past two days...I'd like to say that I've been busy, but in all actuality I've just been so darn lazy up here in MN! Aside from conversations with distant relatives and laughing with (or at) the little kids in camp, I find that one has to be creative to keep entertained while up here in the boons. Whether it be reading, playing badminton, paddle boarding on an old makeshift sailboat, swimming to the raft, swatting mosquitos, canoeing around the island, or exploring, one must be autonomous here up at the lake. Yesterday I decided to go on a run in the afternoon to make up for lost time (my half-marathon training is slaking...woops). One of the many great things about up north is how beautiful it is! It doesn't matter if you're on an old snowmobile trail or on a paved road, you are completely engulfed in green! So today, I am grateful for my running trails/roads up here in MN - your beauty is something to be marveled at. 
 
No joke...this dragonfly (alive) was doing a handstand, take that yoga fanatics!!
 
Oh...and the critters that I find are pretty cool too.
