late fall in mid October

The birch leaves are still hanging on for dear life while the snow
creeps down the mountains surrounding Anchorage. My winter
tires are getting put on today.
 

Lilly and I out for a walk to collect leaves while we babysat and played.
 

Happy Fall. Time to collect samples of all the colors and iron them in
wax paper.
 

Autumn 06 Anchorage

Ah, Autumn is Alaska. Alas, it's sad but inevitable, so why not enjoy
the natural beauty? You can see the termination dust on the Chugach.















Better view of the top 2,000 feet of the Chugach in snow with nearby
Chaney Lake near my condo.
