It is appropriate to include autumn leaves in today’s Telemark Tuesday photograph. It was a relative frosty 27 degrees here at HQ this morning, cold enough to deliver the first heavy frost of the season. Although neighbors had frost at elevations slightly lower than HQ prior, we had been spared until this morning. The patches of crunchy white frost scattered around the yard and mist floating off the lake point to one happy conclusion: winter is coming.

Yay.
