Photo Blogging Challenge (August 2014): Colorful

The theme for PJs Photo Blogging Challenge this month was Colorful. I like a theme open to interpretation! August was a busy month but I whittled it down to five favorites. Let's get started, shall we?

We ended July and started August at the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, specificallly the Charles L. Sommers Base of Northern Tier High Adventure Program. We spent about six days paddling the boundary waters between Minnesota and Canada and had a fantastic time. There were many great sunsets and sunrises.

How could I not include Rainbow Rock in a post with a colorful theme? This was found on our last day on the water. The type of rock is not native to the area and had to have been carried some distance. Northern_Tier_2014_8020260

Back home, my friend Nancy at Lula Jane's keeps raising the bar with delicious, home grown meals.
I just almost didn't come today. I'm glad I did. Tomato pie! Yum.

We celebrated our friend's birthday with a colorful cookie cake. Happy Birthday, Alex!
Happy Birthday, @alex_crump !!!

I rounded August off with a colorful sunset along my evening walking route. It's always a great way to end the day.

Mike, I always love sunset photos and you have two this month...sweet! But the really interesting one to me is the big chunk of rainbow rock, something completely new to me. I'm off to go search for an earthcache based on rainbow rock so I can learn all about it.

That rock is REAL? Now I have to look that up - how cool! All of your pictures are great... I especially love how the sun is seen just through the trees... looks like paradise!
