Old Womans Bay - Lake Superior

This is a view from the beach at Old Womans Bay...Is that snow on the far bank?

Yup...There were still pockets of snow all over Northern Ontario

Beach and Cold Cold water!

Old Womans Bay is in Lake Superior Park. It is about 40 minutes east of Wawa. We stop here every time we pass. My buddy Dan's ashes rest here. We pay our respects to him, to life and to the one with all knowledge and power. That makes this spot sacred to me. It was said that Gitchie Manido actually lives here in this lake. I see why this is beleived. This Lake is the center of a great circle of life. So much depends on this lake. It is the biggest and most awesome and untamed of all the great lakes. This is a place of great abundance, great beauty and a place of rest for the soul.

Lord God, Magnificent Creator,

Great Spirit, Very God, Very Man,

Source of all,

Your magnificence is ever present

I can feel it in Your creations

I can see it in Your people

I can touch it with my hands,

Yet Yours is a power of which I have no control

I therefore journey in faith

that Your magnificent hand will guide Your creation

just as You will and desire

just as you envisioned and just as you dreamt

Thank You Lord God

for this very day

and Your very presence.
