Had a super evening with great MarketWatch friends. It has been decades since we worked together, but the stories are were as fresh as ever. Nick, Anna, Jim, Scott – you are all amazing! 🀩πŸ₯°

Had my mini studio setup today to present at the MnTech CIO Forum: Straight talk on emerging technologies event. Green screen, mic, key light improve things a lot!

Final stop Up North at the Great! Lakes Candy Company and then on our way home!

Stopped at Cedar Coffee Company in Two Harbors for the first time this morning. Delicious pour over coffee and a great breakfast burrito. We will be back!

Sunrise on Lake Superior. I always find it surprising how fast the sunrise happens. There are just moments from when you see that first glimpse of the corona peering over the horizon until it is fully in view.

Before that sequence the sky was filled with these tremendous reds.

North Shore Log

Weather: Still a lot of warmth. Morning was very windy. Sunny and warm in afternoon. Cooled down at night.

Campfire and S’mores tonight on the North Shore.

Gooseberry Falls

We visited Gooseberry Falls today. We have had extreme draught conditions and the falls have been greatly impacted. The Lower Falls are completely dry. It was rather shocking to see. I renamed it Mini Gooseberry Falls this year.
