    Great sky. I particularly like the way this photo is cropped with the tree on the left.

    There is so much water around where you are, I'm always amazed at that.

    A beautiful stretch of weather we have been having. I would have expected a little more "Fall" color.

    B Squared,
    So far only a few trees have turned... here and there. This photo was taken last Sunday, September 6.

    I looked up Balsam Lake on Wikipedia just to jog my memory of where it was in relationship to the other names I so vividly remember from my youth. The aerial view of those lakes is amazing. Of course Rice Lake near Keene is the most magnificent. (ha ha) Alas, Rice Lake is full of weeds, but I think those northern lakes are still clear. You know the Kawarthas are the "land of shining water".

    As far as trees turning, I had to drive 3 hours north of Boston into Maine yesterday and the trees, especially the swamp maples have turned wonderful shades of red.
