    Fall Colors 2018

    Sept. 22, lots of green, nice fall morning 48 degrees.

    Sept. 29, fall temps are here, low 40's at night, hight 50's to low 60's daytime
    not a lot of color change yet.

    Oct. 8, slight hint of color, there are areas around that are in full color, but not here yet.

    How quick things change. Same tree row, two days later.

    Oct. 15, a week ago today temps here were 80 degrees, Tues, 78, and Wed. 74. Today it's 38 w/ snow squalls. 5 minutes after I took this picture it was hard to see through the snow. Awww, the fun living here in the North.
    Tonight more of the same plus 35 mph winds, not sure how long the color will last in these conditions.

    Oct. 20, Cold and wet all week, we've had early lake effect snow this month. It started about two weeks ago, you can see it here. Temps in the 30's. Wind has been hard on the color, don't know if we'll see it peak before it's all gone. YOu can see the change in just 4 weeks if you look at the first picture taken Sept. 22

    It's about over, you can see what happens over 5 1/2 weeks up here. We've had snow and strong winds, so the color didn't last very long, although it was about 2 weeks late this year. Next picture could be just a black and white version of this one.

    Well here is the black & white I promised, Week from today I should be sitting in the deer woods, this AM would have been a perfect opening morning.
    Snow and low 30's w/ light wind,
