June 12, 2019. Rain was in the forecast for most of the upcoming week, and we were so glad that one of the breaks in the rain was Monday night when there was a lecture on the opposition of Jupiter at the Headlands Intl Dark Sky Park. Skies were totally clear to see various constellations and Jupiter and the moon through the telescopes.They remained clear through the next day when we took the Soo Lock excursion on the St. Mary river. It was very cool to go through the lock 2X on the tour. The physics of it were fascinating and the locks have been in existence since the early 1800’s. We saw multiple 1000 foot freighters and one going through the lock. Amazing to see simple physical forces raise a 1000 foot boat. Then the rain began again. Laundry done – check. Grocery shopping done-check. Time to pull out the books.
So much more than travel
