Honey, honey . . .

Ah, sugar . . . Sugar maple, brightest of them all! It's what makes New England and Ontario especially so grand in the fall. I'm not sure how far up north in Canada they do a good display--please chime in, Canadian flistmates. We don't have so many here, and there are fewer south of here. They kept a long display here this year, though many of them got rained off by their peak, and I guess most of us humans got rained in from seeing them. I love them pre-peak best, though, when they still have a lot of green to contrast with the flames.


Behold the colorful stuffses!!!




We're coming to the northwest corner of the lake now, where there's a hill that goes up from the lake with lots of picnic tables and grills, a playground, basketball court, small amphitheater, nice new restroom, the parking lot behind them, along with a couple of cherry trees and sugar maples, and some pines.

Not a whole lot right in my area, but some. I was away for the best part of the display this year, hanging around NJ and NYC, remember? ;-) When I got home, we had several gloomy days in a row, and then the best was over.

Yeah, so much of this year has been a weather wash out.
