Recent Public Pics
Compare this picture to the one taken just one month ago located right in this folder.
There is still an ice bridge, but it is too risky to cross.  The tongue of open water is about a quarter mile from the tree line in this picture.
At Moon Bay right near the county road where a new culvert was put in last summer, 2009.
Found on North side of the island.
There is a FEN near my home that has little islands in it.  On those islands grow huckleberry bushes.

Two pictures combined.  See the tree line near Point Nipigon curving out toward the island.  See open water on the right neat Pointe Aux Pins.  Remember to click on the picture.
Some artistic techniques applied.  How beautiful to fish on a lake that is totally vacant of other fisherman.  Picture taken Feb 24, 2010.
Halfway across the Ice Bridge
This was in a magazine article about the island called "The Other BobLo".
This is scanned from 22 year old newsprint paper, so the quality is not too good. I think it is a good picture of Glenn though.

A picture of the shoreline taken in St. Ignace on 9/3/2007. This is another panoramic picture, original resolution 4789x2162. Again, if you would like a copy just e-mail me: KacyMartin@gmail.com
Taken on the beach at Sand Bay, Bois Blanc Island.
This is from the crab spider family and is called a flower spider.  The rose bush has no thorns. It may be a smooth rose.
I have this gem parked out behind my camp. Every time I go back there... seems like a party going on! You will have to evict the squatters, though...

Can anybody recommend a good weather box? I tried weather.com and it loads way too slow if it loads at all.
