Unusual Visitor
We had a moose pass thru the carry on Bear this morning. This is a first for me after 60 years! Did anyone else see this? Couldn't get the camera quick enough.

Canoe Carry
Historians say that the Native Americans would portage their canoes at the narrow "waist" of Bear Island on trips across the lake. Several years ago, a bear and her cubs were seen enjoying our wonderful island. 🐻

It was on the north end yesterday. Here's a picture from a few weeks ago swimming and standing on a dock on Dolly Island.
