July 25 - Calm Before the Storm - An approaching thunderstorm reflect the light of its lightning in the calm waters of Caribou Lake. Lightning is one of the most recurrent and common weather phenomena. Around the world, there are over 3,000,000 flashes every day around the planet and about 44 strikes every second. It is interesting to note how the God of the universe uses lightning and thunder to get our attention, just like the storms of life seem to capture our attention and turn our eyes to the Lord. He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; Who makes lightnings for the rain, Who brings forth the wind from His treasuries. Psalm 135:7
July 26 - Tall Ship Sorlandet - The majestic Sorlandet in full sail on Lake Superior. Sorlandet is the world's oldest and most authentic fully-rigged ship still in active service. The Sorlandet visited Duluth in 2013 as part of a Tall Ships Festival. With a warm breeze filling sails, the Sorlandet set sail on Lake Superior to its next port of call. The wind blows to the south and goes around to the north; around and around goes the wind, and on its circuits the wind returns. Ecclesiastes 1:6
