Grand Marais Annual Splash In

This weekend is the annual splash in event in Grand Marais.  The weekend features more than a dozen float planes that land in the Grand Marais harbor.  Yesterday some of the planes competed in various competitions such as trying to drop an object closest to a target.  I would include more information, but I have never been able to attend the event.  I believe it is the 14th year for the splash in, and I have been operating the museum now for 16 years.  Here are some pictures I took on Friday.

Interesting that some of the planes "park" frontwards on the beach.
