Minnesota's North Shore

 Sunrises over Lake Superior
 Sunsets
 Waterfall on Pigeon river.  The US/Canadian border.

When they finally looked over I waved widely.  They'd been taking each others pictures for some time.  Resting on the gate that separates them from; the edge, the pumping, rushing of the water far below.  The gate that keeps them in and us out.  
The waterfall is heaving river water a hundred feet, with no thought, just moving it and moving it now. 
They look happy.  Rewarded from the hike and they happily wave back.  Canadians and Americans sharing a happy moment from our respective sides of the river.  Happy to be humans...of the same kind.  We all smile.  Knowing the moment is bigger that our minds can fathom.

 With gusto and exuberance, right Mary!?
