A few weeks ago, I went back to Devil’s Lake. I love it there. It’s one of my favorite places in the Midwest. I guess I always find the two 550ft cliffs and beautiful lake a shock after the two hour drive of seeing nothing but corn. And flat land. And more corn. Devil’s Lake is a break from monotony.
There are several paths that go up and around or just around the lake, but that’s not the best way to go. I prefer to go straight up. Instead of hiking along the paths, I go climbing over the boulders. It’s always a bit challenging especially because I’m slightly lacking in height. But it’s always my favorite part. Something about going off the trail and using every appendage and all parts of your body to get somewhere and accomplish something is very satisfying.
(Thanks to Joanna Kay and James for some of the photos!)

That photo that defines our relationship? I feel like we’re the doctor and his companions looking at some idiot who just insulted time travel or the tardis. 🙂
I will never look at that photo the same way again. We do have rather brilliant expressions, though.
