Another Day without Henry Held
yeah, this is a repeat post from earlier in the year, but so what...
The last day of January my friend Henry Held went for an early evening swim in the ocean, off the coast of Mexico. It was his last swim, as the current turned on him and he tragically lost his life. Below are a couple of pictures of a memorial stone that currently sits outside his Shoe Repair Shop. This is just the kind of day that I would've enjoyed a few minutes chatting with him in the sun - outside his shop. He'd probably be at his favorite crappie hole, though or out for a timely late Summer ride on his Harley, so I most likely would have missed him.
Just like I'm missing him today. Happy trails, my friend!

Report from the Northland. Piragis Northwoods Company Canoe Outfitting makes waves as a preferred vacation! Get to Ely and Experience the beauty and wonder of September. Permits booking fast!
A Duluth new station stopped by last week to get the low down on how many people were canoe tripping in the Boundary Waters. Bert took a few moments away from our busy outfitting schedule to share just how popular canoeing trips have become in the last couple of years. There are still plenty of permits left for September and it is a fantastic month to go into the Boundary Waters and Quetico. You can click the title link above to read the whole news story.
