Incredibly mild Autumn in the Keweenaw this year.  Yesterday's warm rain even perked up the Petunias. 

Almost Thanksgiving and we've not even had a killing frost. 

Last night's action at the Girls' District Basketball Tournament.  In this match, it was Houghton over Calumet 44 to 35. 

That's some mighty good looking hardwood

The Coast Guard crew gets an early start before sunrise, doing all those "end of season" tasks before the snow comes.  That's the lift bridge in the background.

Wonder if they have a sale on used bouys? 

Something about the back roads of the Keweenaw that always beckons...  even in this "in-between" time, after the leaves and before the snow.

Drive safely and watch for deer

Pasty Cam was a little late in the day (actually moments before midnight before being uploaded).  We had hoped to see the meteor shower over the lake.

A few weeks ago we spotted these peaks at a distance...
...and today let's take a closer look.
