Summer into Autumn

It was a good weekend to get away.  The last days of Summer, 2012, were upon us and Deirdre had a reading day for work, so on Thursday night after work we made trek to our cottage.  It was well worth the drive.

Michigan is known for its beautiful, albeit brief, summers and beautiful fall colors.  I was hoping that some of the trees here would have started the transition from green to the autumnal palate of red, yellow and orange.  We are still a few weeks away from that point.

I was able to get a couple images of Lake Huron in its last throes of summer:

Looking north to Oscoda

And what would a visit to East of the Equator be without an image of Samson the dog:

He loves it here and it does not matter the temperature of the Lake.  He managed to at least get his feet wet a couple of times.

So long Summer, hello Fall.
