The Last of the Great Color for 2015...

From here on out the color in our area will be past it's prime. The wind today is knocking a heck of a lot of leaves off the trees!

The weather forecasters are predicting upper 70's for tomorrow, but by the middle of the week the highs will be in the mid 40's with over night lows well into the freezing range.

So, to give us something to remember when the howling winds of winter are piling the snow drifts taller than my truck, Nancy and I went for a ride in the woods. We found lots of fall color, and had a great time doing it...


Out in the Chequamegon National Forest we came across a bridge over a small stream...


We were having such a good time, I snapped a dorky selfie... We both got a good laugh over this.


One last fall picture...


I'll ride when I can but tomorrow we're going to try and go kayaking one last time.

  9. The WI Fall Color site showed your area and Clark Co being Prime last weekend and it was brilliant when I was up. We're in the midst of it now, a busy weekend here, maybe tomorrow will see some miles?

    Did you get out on the water??

    1. No, and I really wish we would have. The color is fading fast and well past prime now. The winds are knocking the leaves off the trees, some are almost bare.

      We had our first view of snow very early this morning (10-17-2015) Just enough to be seen, nothing stuck to the ground.
