August, September, November

No October this year:  We went straight from warm and raining September to November, with only a few days of strong winds in between to strip the trees.  Fortunately beech trees hang on to many of  their leaves through the winter or there would not be any color left at all.

It was much too windy to go out on the water today, so we walked "the loop", a 5 kilometer walk that gives us some nice views of the mountain and then brings us home through The Flat.
