Festivals, fishing, and early fall fun

And the festivals continue. This was the People's Art Fair that we popped into while waiting for Nancy and Rodney to appear.

Enjoyed lunch at Ryce, of course, and trekked back over Ohio Pass to see early fall color and a doe in the midst of the brown to gray change.

The hogtrough. Gigantic trout - catch and release only and it doesn't show but there were a mob of people there.

Fun ride up to Taylor Reservoir. Perfect weather and lunch at Nugget Cafe before it closes for the season. We weren't alone that's for sure, the upper Taylor has turned into a crazy ATV area and everybody was taking advantage of the Labor Day weekend.

While we were in the area we went to visit the scene of Ralph's infamous snowmobile accident two years ago. Doesn't look like much, right? Take miles of blinding white snow with no depth perception and going 50 miles an hour and its a recipe for disaster. Mark and Special Forces saved the day. So sad Ralph is gone but he did get another two years after the accident. Lived life in a BIG way.

We saw multi fun activities driving around. Rock climbing was one. There is a tiny person in each of these photos. Definitely not gonna happen for me but fun to watch.

We ran the geese off - close to 40 making very unhappy noises
Fishing on the common ground. Nancy caught 2, decent size but nothing like the monsters we had in the pond last year. They unfortunately died during the winter so we replenished this past spring. Growing well.

not as early sunrises mean I will take a photo or two
Great visit with Nancy and Rodney but poof off they went. Awaiting Anne and Jean's arrival. It's a revolving door around here and I love it!
