As the record-breaking storm blew across Minnesota and Lake Superior -- reports from Orr, Minn., were at 28.14" of mercury -- here are some links to what happened in the Grand Marais area, on the North Shore.

Nice to know that Mariah is under wraps for the season.

Grand Marais is considered a "safe" harbor. We have tied up to that wall many times.

thanks for the hint OJ
John those are some spectacular pics. I haven't strolled that wall in some time but I clearly remember how peaceful and clam that "safe harbor" appeared!
Friends of mine were to fly home through O'Hare (sp) Tuesday, but didn't make it. Their flight was canceled and our flight on Sunday was also canceled. Bad storm!
