Nice!

The leaves are really falling fast in my area(Hibbing) ....I've noticed most of the reds of the maples are already on the ground and primarily the yellows of the birch popples and remaining maples are left and falling fast!good percentage of the leaves will be on the ground in a week!.....a few images from this grey wet, morning...

















old fallen oak or maple from 50-60 years ago...a huge fungi has taken over the log!...we're talkin a 5 plus pounder and a smaller one also!....I believe they are "Maitaki's" or "Hen of the Woods"....quite edible but I'm not eatin it!

Here`s a few from today.

What a collection of beautiful shots! Jonny - I think I see a rare digiscope in the middle of one of your shots! Seldom seen in this neck of the woods!

Thanks Ken!...Lol!!..I know absolutely no one who digiscopes!....probably thee only guy north of Duluth ..think one would eventually meet someone who does.........nada! .....anyways,here's another fall image of my favorite homestead as the fall colors have progressed.......this maple never reached the full colors of past years....maybe next year

here was one from oregon late last month on the metolius river......

Well...Most of the leaves are almost on the ground in my neck of the woods! ...Always a sad time for me(well not that sad..lol!) ...to see all that beautiful color "disappear".....Here's a few images from this mornings ride a few miles south of Hibbing.....

Here's some silly fall color!
For over 10 years I had been looking for one of these! A 1996 2182 Cub Cadet with power steering,3 point hitch,PTO,and the 3 cylinder Kubota engine.
I've had many large John Deere riders,but had always wanted one of these-don't ask me why.
Cruising thru the Deere dealers lot I happened to see it and tried to curb my excitement long enough to ask the salesman the price. "Well,it ain't green" he said,"soooo..how about $800?" I paid him immediately and felt like a little kid on Christmas day.
I then called the guy who's been wanting my deere rider and made a sale to him for $3800. So I got what i always wanted and pocketed 3 grand-I'm happy to say the least.
Needless to say,my wife thinks I'm weird for lusting after this tractor and driving it around just to drive it. And oh man,this baby just rips skippy! I love that 3 cylinder engine.
Do I have a problem or what??!! I guess just finding a way to post this image answers that question!

Beautiful as always Jonny!

Cool MM!

Nice shot but A John Deere would have been a good green contrast! LOL

Very nice all! Excelllent stuff.

Great fall images guys!.....The fall colors are certainly on the way out in this neck of the woods....The last real colors are the golden tamaracs and then the starkness of winter sets in.....

Some tamaracks across from the boat launch in Orr, MN.
