It is the time of the year when the Tamarack gets its glow on. They are without a doubt beautiful.
Lake Nebagamon is a nice little community about 30 miles north and was the destination today.
.
Most of the golf courses are closed for the season in this part of world.
Along with the golf courses being closed, the leaves that once adorned these trees are now either on the forest floor or floating down stream to who knows where.
As some of you know I ride past the Moose River quite often. Near as I can count, I crossed 18 streams today.
IMO...A great little sign. I think it is a great setting.
This is the Bois Brule River. This is looking upstream from Douglas County Highway P. Not far from this bridge, it starts its 44 mile journey to Lake Superior.
Although it was 36° when I left home, it was warming up fast to a high of 49°. That meant I needed to shed a layer. I am not complaining.
We have a family tradition in which we usually have a meal when a birthday comes up. This is what was waiting for me in Lake Nebagamon. Nuuuuuummmm. I can tell you one thing with all certainty, my niece and her boy friend can really cook. WOW is all I can say. Every time we go there...oooh weee!! Of course, the company is also great. One more thing, I have leftovers. hehehe
As always, a big Thank You for those who read...and comment. And for those that may not know, click on the pictures for a bigger version.
Lets get outdoors and have some Fun!!
It's gotta say something about me when the first picture I click on is the food.
ReplyDeleteI was lucky to have had pretty much the same experience yesterday as you did (minus the great meal at the end). Love those tamarack!
I agree, the tamarack are fabulous...just like the food:-)
DeleteI clicked on the food too. Looks really good. And I think we could sneak on the golf course and play a quick 18.
ReplyDeleteI was out twice for a total of 27 holes this year. That is the least amount of golf I played in probably 30 plus years.
DeleteBeautiful images of the Tamarack! Did a road ride yesterday and the temp was 38F. No problem staying warm. Am going to try and keep riding this winter, as long as the roads are not icy.
ReplyDeleteThanks Barb! I haven't had much trouble staying warm. I have found the best set-up for me to ride the roads in the winter is a single speed with studded tires. I am glad to hear you have been out. The riding has been great.
DeleteSo is Happy Birthday in order for RLove?
ReplyDeleteNo, not until next year...but Mrs rlove2bikes birthday was Monday.
