Fall Colors

The fall colors this year have been outstanding. This first picture shows a clump of aspens with a lot of orange coloring. Right in the middle, between trees, you can see a patch of blue which is Henry's Lake.

This next picture is from the same area but looking away from the lake and towards the mountains. This clump of aspens sports orange and red coloring.

There are a lot of native mountain ash shrubs growing wild in this area, and they are likewise putting on a great show. Here is one that shows a progression from green to orange to dark purple, all in the same bush. The gas station in the background is Robin's Roost, which is a mile and a half down the road from my house. Like the one across the street from me, this one is also a small grocery store and lunch counter.
