Summer Fades...

Saturday was a beautiful day up here in the mountains...
but that was just one nice day in a whole week of overcast, drizzly, windy and cold days...

The forecast is for more rain and cold temperatures...
...so it looks like we will be heading south in a few days to warmer climates...
...even if that just means downstate a few hours!

Summer fades...
...but hopefully autumn will appear with bright sunny days to make the beautiful colors of the foliage sparkle and shine.
When that happens we will be back to see these mountains in all their colorful glory!

I hope the week ahead brings good things and fun times with family and friends.

Spring Flowers in the Adirondacks

The view from the bench at lakeside....that water is freezing cold this time of year....



The ferns drift over from the woods onto the clearing of our yard....



Sprouting up under the shady pines and right through the twig furniture.....



Giant Solomon's Seal....



Such fragile white "bells" swing down toward the pine carpet.....



These delicate woodland flowers are just amazing to me....



Trillium......I don't see them often... apart from the woods....but this one comes up in our garden at the lake each spring.....
Hope tomorrow is a peaceful and calm day for all.....
