In God’s Country

Sawbill Lake in the Boundary Waters of Northern Minnesota – my favorite place in the world.

Up until a few years ago, I’d gone camping here every summer of my life.  Literally. My grandfather found this slice of heaven on earth a half century ago, and every year he brought his family back.  So too, my parents brought me before I had even enjoyed my first birthday.

I have so many stories and just as many photos from Sawbill, and both will be sure to follow in the weeks and months to come.  Tomorrow, my folks are heading up to the Boundary Waters for a week’s long vacation, so I dedicate this pic to them.  Have a safe and wonderful trip, Mom & Dad, and don’t forget to pack your camera!
