Break Out the Picnic Baskets

Spring Fog in the U.P.

“Picnic Tables Awaiting the Spring” by Aunt Jojo on Flickr

After the lingering winter it stills remains more and more promising that spring is around the corner. Parks are clear of snow and starting to take down their “closed for the season” signs and opening their gates.

This photo is taken at Hagerman Lake, nine miles southwest of Iron River. The photo was snapped on April 24th, 2008.

As the parks open it’s time to pack for a picnic and enjoy it free of cold, but you better do it soon because the mosquitoes will be coming shortly.
