Thanks Matt
You have to be an early raiser to catch the fog :lol:

or come visit the mountains, the fog hangs around longer up here.

I have some more I'll post later, I got a nice reflection picture!

Champy
I live 45 minutes south of the blue line, but I know there's not much color up there yet. But it will be comming soon, the high peaks area has had frost for the last two mornings. The rain has been fair so the color should be good when it arrives. Keep checking this news link they update the fall color daily. http://www.wktv.com/weather/home/9690367.html

Let me know when your comming up maybe we can hook up?
