Title: Two Lakes with Fall Colors
Post by: grandpawrichard on November 05, 2010, 08:39:52 AM: Here is a batch of photos I took Nov. 3rd. of a couple of lakes southeast of Mt. Vernon, Wa. to show what a Beautiful Fall day we were having. The morning started out quite windy, but when the wind died down the weather was Amazing!

This is Lake 16 from the Boat Launch Access:

I couldn't believe how beautiful and Blue the water came out, nor how still and Reflective the calm waters became! :)

I'll even throw in a couple of Mountain Photos for your enjoyment:

This is Mt. Baker:

I believe this mountain is Mount Pilchuck:

That's where I met my wife on a climb almost 20 years ago. The trip wasn't that great, but the marriage took, so far! :chuckle:

Smokepole,
Thanks for the compliment on the photos and the information on the name of the mountain. I feel like a dummy! I have lived here all my life and I didn't know the name of a mountain that I have seen so many times it is pathetic. :( :'(

Glad your marriage took off so well! May you have 40 years Plus together in health and happiness!
