Miami waterfront, Saturday night.

The sunset light of a fall day illuminates buildings in downtown Chicago.

Hot days, hot boats, and stormy skies.

Long Bridge Marina — Detroit Lakes, Minnesota.

It’s fall on the Colorado River along its scenic headwaters byway in The Rocky Mountains. Boats and rafts take advantage of sunshine, warm temperatures and fall colors to fish, relax, and go with the flow.

Near Kremmling, Colorado.

The full moon lights up the shoreline on Pelican Lake.

Boats rafting up to party and watch the sunset on Pelican Lake.

Bumper-to-bumper traffic, Chicago.

Just when I thought I had used up my quota of beautiful summer sunsets from Mother Nature, I received the gift above. It was a rainy day up in the mountains, and I spent most of the day working inside on business stuff. I glanced outside shortly before sunset and noticed a few breaks in the clouds. I jumped into my car and headed a short distance to the Frisco Bay Marina on Lake Dillon. I’m glad I took the effort because the sunset was nothing short of spectacular.

That’s Chief Mountain on the left and Buffalo Mountain on the right.

This is a special time of year when summer is in full bloom in the Lake Country of Minnesota — including the daylilies in front of our place.
