Grandma Barbs This and That

Fall and September have crept up on me.  It hasn't exactly felt like Fall with the 90 degree weather we have been having.  The heat wave has finally broken today.  I have been on the go since the 1st of September but finally have a day with nothing planned.  So it is time to get back to posting.  I'll show you a  few quite a few pictures from my vacation visiting the Tall Ships at Duluth.  I'm only going to feature one ship, the Sorlandet.  It is a Norwegian ship and was the largest and most impressive.  We waited in the rain for 2 hours to get  tour it.  There were a couple of friendly guys that shared their umbrellas with us.

A few shots from on board

This shot is from the harbor after it set sail with most of the sails raised.

Here it is on the left with another one of the tall ships and a couple of small sail boats

Hours later when we got back to our motel we could still see the ship far out on the lake from our balcony

You can see more details about the Sorlandet here

I will try to get caught up with all of you soon.

Until next time have a great week.
