Check out this really great view!  This is what I see when I glance over my shoulder while working on my computer.  We're in Britt, Minnesota on a Background-Shooting-Safari for our new "Virtual Backgrounds" system.  Britt is WAAAAAAY up North...northern Minnesota----not all that far from Canada.  It's also close to Hibbing, Minnesota where Bob Dylan came from. 

Last 4th of July season, I rode my motorcycle up here.  Awesome scenery!  Very long ride though; TEN HOURS STRAIGHT!  (There's actually a motorcycle rally called the "Iron Butt" rally.  The route takes you around the entire perimeter of the United States.  Contestants must put in a minimum of 1,000 miles per day!  I don't make this stuff up!)  Because of the trip back home, I don't think that I'll ever take the motorcycle all the way up here again.  Trailor it...maybe.  Ride it all the way...nope.  Here's why:
It was broad daylight - and I was on the freeway following a Corvette from Dundee, Ill.  We were doing around 85 mph.  All of a sudden, a deer comes out of nowhere - galloping right into the freeway.  It was like watching a really strange movie in slow motion.  At first, I thought the Vette missed the deer.  He swerved, and it looked like everything was cool.  But then, I see the deer fly up into the air...and land back down right on top of the Vette. 

After that, the rest of the trip was altogether different.  I was spooked.  Heavy woods came right up to the edge of the freeway.  There was no way to see what was in there.  Anything could jump out at any second - and there wouldn't be enough reaction time to do a thing about it!  Well, I obviously made it back okay.  Another "feather-in-my-head dress-of-adventures"!
