Here UP North, if you're traveling on US41, between Marquette and Houghton, you'll pass through the little town of Three Lakes, named for the three lakes that are nearby, Lake George, Lake Ruth and Beaufort Lake. The latter is the subject of today's colorful display.

Marsha Galbraith took a drive around Lake Beaufort with her trusty camera by her side and what she found was the wall of colored leaves you see in today's photos. We're so lucky that fall gets multiplied by two whenever it is viewed on the shores of a calm lake such as this one. When you see it doubled up like this, reflecting in the still waters of Lake Beaufort, it helps to make up for the season being so short to begin with.

Once again, Marsha has taught us to slow down and take note of all the beauty that surrounds us, rather than just speeding by on our way to somewhere else. Thank you, Marsha, for always seeing what we often take for granted.

In the 50's as I recall the area was referred to as Sister Lakes

Very nice...beam me UP, Scotty!

Absolutely beautiful U.P. style!


By Marsha, Genesee/Aura (Marsha) on Friday, October 10, 2014 - 09:40 am:

Thanks, Mary! This is an especially beautiful fall in the UP. We came to our place in Aura twice, all the way from the Flint area, 9 days apart! I can do that now that I'm retired!

I once said that to a Scottish Terrier, Alex.... but all it did was look at me funny!!

The photos today remind me just how drab SE Texas is this time of year, not to mention that it's still in the 90s here. Even our local weathergirl is complaining that this is October, not July!


By Shirley Waggoner (Shirlohio) on Friday, October 10, 2014 - 09:58 am:

These are beautiful scenes!
I could handle Texas this time of year, Capt.;)

Capt, the funny look is because you forgot to say "Alex, get me a beer." :-)

Beautiful pictures. Fall is my favorite season. When the trees decide they are going to change into something not so colorful it seems like it takes them forever.

Oh how beautiful. The U.P. of Michigan is one of the
loveliest places on earth! great pics!


By Capt. Paul (Eclogite) on Friday, October 10, 2014 - 11:42 am:

I'm pretty sure if I'd have said that Alex the poor Scotty would have really been confused....


By Thomas Baird (Thomas) on Saturday, October 11, 2014 - 07:24 am:

I never tire of Autumn photos.


By Janie T. (Bobbysgirl) on Saturday, October 11, 2014 - 08:57 am:

Knowing Scotties behavior very well, that Scottie was probably totally aloof to the whole conversation..... ;)
