Upland Color

Same thing is happening here in northcentral Wisconsin, Dean---little splashes of colors beginning to appear. They usually say the first trees to change are those that are stressed from not enough moisture, kind of hard to understand that is the case this year though, as it seems we've had more than our fair share of rain lately.

I am seeing a bit of that here in Connecticut. Very dry here.

The maples in Northern Minnesota, at least in my yard, are dropping leaves. On a different note, I just received my new Gun Gloves to protect my Parker, RBL and Lefever. The first few weekends are usually pretty hot. I have ruined the finish on a couple of shotguns due to sweat. Cheers!

It's that time of year here in Michigan as well. Now, if we could have a week or two with out it getting into the 90's I might be able to think about chasing grouse.

Seems there are a few branches on some trees that start early every year. But until the nights get much cooler and there is steam coming off the coffee early in the morning I resist the urge to get overly excited.
