It is Friday. It is time to take a trip.
July 31st, 2015 we had the opportunity to spend the day on Long Lake.
We have friends who live on Long Lake. They invited us to spend the day on the water and for a Blue Moon boat ride.
We started our ride with a beautiful sunset.
We toured along the lake.
A celebrity lives on Long Lake.
Or some of you may know him as Mater, like my family does.

The Walleye Capital of Wisconsin, Long Lake in Washburn County is a
picturesque 3,300 acre, 19 mile long lake reaching depths of over 70
feet. The clear, spring-fed water, cool deep bays, gravel bars,
pristine setting, and miles of undeveloped shoreline.

Oh my, here comes the Blue Moon.
When someone says "Once in a Blue Moon," you know what they mean: Rare, seldom, even absurd.
This year it means "the end of July."
For the second time this month, the Moon is about to become full.
There was one full Moon on July 2nd, and now a second is coming on July
31st. According to modern folklore, whenever there are two full Moons
in a calendar month, the second one is "blue."

The Moon belongs to everyone, the best things in life are free.

"The moon belongs to everyone." I like that!
ReplyDeleteYour moon photos are stunning! Thanks for taking us along on your trip!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos! I THINK I recall a long lake in the Shawano area....can there be 2 lakes with the same name in the state??? just wondering.
ReplyDeleteThat photo of the moon disappearing behind the trees is outstanding. What an amazing moment you were able to capture.
ReplyDeleteEvery time I look at a full moon, I wonder who else is looking at it from wherever they are. I like the statement that the moon belongs to everyone. Have a great trip.
