A Color Tour -- Day Two

There was a day when Michigan license plates read Winter Wonderland (instead of today's Great Lakes State). Heh.

Day Two of the Picture Michigan color assignment brings us to Watersmeet, home of the Nimrods, snow, ice cream (hand dipped AND soft serve), and the nearby Bond Falls.

It's unbelievable how beautiful these waterfalls are.

Like yesterday's tour of the Western UP's autumn colors..., well, never mind. But is this not the most breathtaking site? This is not merely making the most of what is handed to you. This is spectacularly awesome, no matter how you slice it!


A little further east, we find ourselves in Iron Mountain. There's still some color here, but not nearly as much as there was a couple days ago when we first passed through on our way to Wakefield.

A little light snow blowing through the air like a light fog, but nothing close to the winter storm warning further west closer to Lake Superior. A clearer sky would allow a greater view here from Millie Hill.

We shall see what tomorrow holds. In the mean time, back to the game.
GO TIGERS!
