Mille Lacs: Hunting and Fishing Paradise

En route to the Coven Cabin we witches must go north up Highway 169 past Mille Lacs.  It's a pretty drive and we pass through a mish-mash of towns, landmarks, and assorted establishments:  Half-Breed Motorcycles, various Ojibwa reservations and casinos, the giant walleye statue, hunting lodges, and roadhouses. 

I could not help but take a picture of the sign on the door at the Y Club when we stopped in for a bite declaring that guns were not allowed on the premises.  My coven gave me the strangest look and one of them said, "Why are you taking a picture of that?  Does that really stand out in your mind?"

The other thing that I found amusing was the proliferation of  what I call the 'anti-political' bumper sticker.  No endorsements for politicians or causes.  People just put random, borderline gross (but humorous), statements on their cars. 

I have obviously been away from my childhood roots too long.
