Lake Michigamme and the U.P. in Autumn

I am going to show you some more photos
of
the lake I live on today
(Lake Michigamme)
in the beautiful U.P. of Michigan.
These were taken in late August/early Sept.



Our lake has lots of rocks and rock bluffs
and it isn't too built up, which is something I am very grateful for:







It also has lots and lots of little, medium and large islands on it.
Some have cabins, some are free of any type of development:








We often see Eagles on the islands.
But the day I took these photos, we did not see any:








But we did see color. Lots of autumn colors. I loved it:






Sorry.
I just HAD to throw another autumn picture of an autumn road in the post.
I am addicted.:


Where was I?

Oh yeah...
the Lake.

In fall splendor:







There is a bible camp on a point where the land juts out into the lake.
It is called: Presbytery Point.
See the cross made out of the birch logs at the point?
It is a landmark for all us boaters that live on the lake:






Did I mention that I sometimes stick in pictures
of autumn woods roads yet?:






Another little rocky island:

We  have learned that fishing
is often
very good on the edges of these islands.

But Shhhh-hh-h
Don't tell my neighbors................
They just think I have magic bait.
(That I dig up on the sides of autumn wood's roads)
