Before Fall Dropped

Mt Spurr from the overlook near Arness Dock. 

 I knew the temps were going to drop, so I took one last 'summer' outing on the lake. Shorts, tank top, and bare tootsies. Many leaves were already switching to their autumn finery, but you could tell they weren't serious about it yet.

 A majority of the lily pads had already gone from green to gold to wrinkled and brown. Their season is a short one.

 My toes were NOT impressed with the temps (one of my feet dropped into the lake and was quickly rescued!!). You can see they are fuzzy and pale! (OK, the fuzzy is cuz they are out of focus, but it could be because they wanted to be warm!)
