Fall colors pretty much happened overnight up here. The colors along the gravel road from the resort out to the blacktop are beautiful. Looking at the colors along the shoreline from out in the boat is breathtaking. Its been dry and cool at night so the leaves turned color overnight and then started to fall. It won't take long and it will be over. We don't mind though because we can usually follow fall colors as they happen while heading south. We have been starting to get the resort ready to shut down. The big water towers that the kids play on came out of the water. Otherwise, if they stay in too long the muskrats start chewing on the cords holding them in place in the water.
We are taking our boat out of the water and having it winterized. We plan to store it up here for the winter. We can use one of the resort boats if we want to get out on the water. It will be vey nice traveling south without the boat. We hope to check out the Black Hills , Wyoming, Utah and then Arizona.

Maybe I missed a sentence that you will return to Kabetogema for Summer 2013? Your leaving the boat behind makes me think you will be back there ... and it looks like AZ is your winter destination and home.
I have totally enjoyed your summer in Northern MN! ;D If you return there you just might see my mug next year ... might be a fun day trip from Ely when we are staying on there for more than a weekend. The short weekends go by so quickly we usually just hunker in there for our short bursts North.
We have a series of September weekend trips planned to Ely ... we just returned to the city last evening and noted MANY large truck-camper pairs moving about, as well as huge bus-like RVs. They all make me thing of you two hauling around the roads Spring and Fall ... and I wonder what all of their stories are and where they are all hoping to end up during this season of transition.
Thank you for being so faithful to share the happenings and thoughts of your weeks ... I am still here reading!
Your fan,
Barb Kuzma
