Nature's suminigashi

We have been back 2 weeks now. Unfortunately I got caught up in the American version of Game of Thrones - our current political nightmare. If I have one hair on my head left it will be amazing.

I try hard to remember our adventure. We traveled 7,108 miles, visited 13 states and collected 8 capitols. We saw some beautiful parks and rocks and sights. Nature out did herself in Tahquamenon Fall in Michigan. I loved the falls....




But the designs created by the tannin foams were equally beautiful and delightful...




We rented a flat bottom boat. It was hard to contain my delight. 







We looked like a whirly gig twisting and turning to get each shot.

And then it got thicker.... 



 

A bit like the foam on a mocha latte. 
It was amazing. 
Nature's version of suminagashi. 
And me without any paper to dip! Dang!

  2. Thanks for your comment. Even with running... it is one foot at a time. Thankfully, speed is no longer on the list for us retirees.
