So somehow that previous photograph was turned into this.

The drone itself did this, not me. It took multiple photographs and stitched them together and made like a fish eye image of the earth below.

Found this just laying on the ground.

Maybe, didn’t make it through the rain storm last night . Zoom in and look at the incredible detail. Insects have always freaked me out, it’s a branch of biology, that I find fascinating. It almost looks like hair. Doesn’t it just make your head spin…. It’s a wing from a mouth. That black circle at the end of the wing, is supposed to freak you out, as like an eye, a big creature…. it’s a perfect example, of evolution.

Some guy heading off for a one nighter in the wilderness.

All the right gear, all well broken in, I’m not the only nature lover.

Car camping is so easy, you have so much space to carry stuff.

She was on a mission.

Checking some kind of trap line, wildlife observation, I don’t know. In and out of here just like that, right across the lake and back… Came with a ATV, with a canoe hanging off the back of it. And packing a handgun on a right side hip. Crazy

Totally got dumped on last night.

Without the tent, you can’t survive, first the insects would eat you alive, then the water would turn you into a drowned rat.

I’m like a kid that never grew up.

My, top-of-the-line drone, sitting on top of my Porsche 911. Can you have any two better toys. But I’m a serious person that deals with a lot of people in concern. I try to fix them, as best I can. You want to see is clearly as possible, as long as possible.

Swimming in the Wilderness

I always wear a life jacket. I can’t swim, I would drown for sure without one. But; with, a life jacket on, I’m fearless, I know I won’t sink. I hear a distant thunderstorm, possibly approaching. I am prepared. I am now surrounded by thunder to my left and to my right. I am waiting for the frontal assault. It was 95° when I was swimming.

Non-Motorized Wilderness

Reynard Lake

One of my favorite dispersed campsites. You can hike, you can boat, you can fish, you can hunt, back in the middle of nowhere, with nobody around. Oh and I forgot to mention you can go swimming when it’s 95° as it is right now.

Rib Mountain

Wausau Wisconsin

Pioneer house, built in the 1850s… completely preserved.

I know who built this, and where he came from.

This is how you build a barn in America, if you’re from Norway in the 1850s.

The exact same history as my ancestors.

Last week I was in Norway where these guys came from. Now I’m standing in front of the house they built here in America, preserved in a state park.
