Since this is a scenic drive I decided to present you a picture blog today. This is the sights along the north shore scenic drive which is rated one of the most beautiful drives in the U.S. We came in on Hwy 1 and headed south on Hwy 61 (famous North Shore Scenic Drive) to Duluth.
Split Rock Lighthouse was built in 1910 and was in operation till 1939.
Lake Superior is known for the number of ships that have sank in its waters. Including the Edmund Fitzgerald that Gordon Lightfoot wrote his famous song about.
Some of the plants along the Gooseberry Falls path...this didn't even
look real.
GooseBerry Falls is made up of the upper, middle and lower falls and you can climb up the rocks to all three (or if your less daring you can walk along the well laid out trails).
It's pretty peaceful right before the water drops down middle falls.

We think the Seagulls are much prettier in Minnesota than in California.
This was the only leaf I saw that was this color and spotted...I thought it was really unique.
This is called the Silver Creek Cliff Tunnel. It is 1400 ft long and was built in 1995.
We stopped in Two Harbors for a nice dinner (the most expensive of the trip) and stayed at Burlington Bay Campground for the night.
