Well we finally made it to the beach for the first time on this trip. crazy, unearthly, beautiful.

(Photo By Pat S. - Click To Enlarge)That would be me approaching Mike. Great View of the Ice Shelves too. You can see how they build up.
Here's another photo of Mike getting wet:

(Cropped From Above Photo - Click To Enlarge)Here's me surveying a good spot on the beach...
(Photo By Pat S. - Click To Enlarge)Now, Mike by this time is headed up the hill, cuz he's cold and wet.
I on the other hand decide to catch some February rays. get a good full body tan. Well except i didn't take off my jeans. It's cold out.
(Photo By Pat S.)After a few hours, i mean seconds, of basking in the radiance of the cloud-covered, February sun, and being satisfied with my new reddish hue - sure to satisfy the ladies too - i put my shirt and hoodie back on.
But wait! What's this i see?
Why, I see Mike running toward me with a fun recreational swimming toy he found. Surely my fun in the sun is not quite over! I have to try this thing out.

(Photo By Pat S. - Click To Enlarge)There is no picture of this because Pat was daydreaming again. Photographer MY ASS!
We all concluded it must have been fate's way of getting back at me for calling it's bluff the entire trip.
Fun's over thanks to that very, very poor loser "Fate". I'm wet and cold, and quite literally could die from hypothermia if i don't get back to the warm van.
On our way, Mike, responsibly makes sure to put the fun, recreational swimming toy back into it's box.
(Photo By Pat S.)We took the scenic road back to Duluth. More snow fall on the way.
We then stopped at the "Scenic Cafe" right outside of Duluth for lunch.

(Photo By Pat S.)We then got to Duluth proper. And proceeded with the previous attempt to acquire CD's from the Electric Fetus. Today it was open. We then all got drinks across the street - it took the barrista about an hour to make them for us.
I also learned that testicles move on their own - constantly. Mike assured me of this fact. I even looked it up - has something to do with the "cremaster muscles" keeping the testes at the correct temperature - like a rotisserie oven.
It was a very educational trip. There are so many things to learn from the last surviving Beaker-people and their peculiar culture. I feel like i haven't even scratched the surface in my studies.
Here's a picture of my other cat, "Simple" (as i like to call him), greeting me at the door when i finally got home.
He got so nervous while i was gone that he chewed his two front legs off!!!
(Photo By Me)He used to claw up the furniture really bad, so i had them surgically removed.
Congratulations. You've reached the...

Bob, I hate that picture of your legless cat! You are mean for tricking me into looking at it again!!!
Well you don't have to look at him every day like i do.
I know he's got an ugly face, and i'm sorry. I should have blurred that part of the picture because it is offensive.
But it is kind of cute when he comes to greet me at the door - scooting around like he does with his two back feet. Takes him like 10 minutes just to get to the door. I think it's adorable.
But your right. next time i'll blur out that disgusting mug of his.
