We love autumn! Unfortunately, it is of short duration here in the northland. With the dry summer we just had, we were afraid that it would not be that pretty this year. It has been spectacular. The reds and yellows of the maples, the yellows and orange of the poplars and the birch, the orange of the tamarack--all with the evergreens in the background--have been gorgeous this autumn. This is probably the last week, but we have enjoyed it for the past several weeks.
The sky is so blue in the autumn. It is fun to look straight up through the trees (at our age, we must be careful so that we don't fall over!).
Jodie shot these two photos at their cabin in Minnesota. Above: It was a beautiful autumn morning with the reflection on the lake. Below: The lakes are as deep blue as the sky in the autumn.
A beautiful sunrise in Minnesota's lake country!
Lorraine returned from Michigan with this spectacular photo of their lake. The blues of the sky made everything look so beautiful and serene.
We don't want to get too far ahead of ourselves because not all of the leaves are down yet. However, some serious raking will soon be in order! It surely beats shoveling snow!
