Morning on the St. Croix

We discovered a beautiful time to get out on the St. Croix River in the early summer... very early on Sunday morning! It was beautiful - water like glass, herons and eagles everywhere, fog in the low-lying areas... just spectacular.




We came across some big turtles near the launch at St. Croix Bluffs Park. They were already basking in the early morning sun and didn't seem too bothered by a passing motorboat.



Here is my crew, contemplating the day after the arduous passage from St. Croix Bluffs to the docks at the town of Afton - where we stopped for coffee and a snack.
