If you have never seen 12 Mile Beach, it is incredible. The National Forest campground sits on a bluff overlooking Lake Superior. It's like sitting on top of a sand dune.

Our golden retriever took one look at the calm waters and went crazy.

We raced down the sandy bluff to the waters edge and into Lake Superior. With the almost tropical breezes lightly blowing across the shore, we momentarily lost our senses. But the now "chilly", yah, that's the word, waters reminded us it is October. We strolled up and down the beach picking up various uniquely colored stones polished smooth from centuries of the pounding surf.

As the sun blazed reddish orange just above the water's edge, the colors flowed across the sky in a fitting conclusion of a purely sensory day. As the sky darkened to night and the stars came out, we sat on the bluff eating PB and J sandwiches . . . vowing that next year, we will bring out tents and spend the night counting shooting starts.

Thanks for joining us on our Keuvelaar family fall color tour. Hope you enjoyed the pictures.
