Northern Minnesota Fall Colors Continued ~ McGregor & Big Sandy Lake

One of my most favorite times of the year is fall and this year is no different, I made a promise to many of you that I would share my area photos with everyone and this past week has just been spectacular for the colors.

All of these photos have been taken from my neighborhhod and infact all from the same road 202nd place aka pondarosa point.

My wife Leane and I got home about the same time the other night and the sun was barely out and I said to her I was going out to grab a few shots down the road and I would be back in a little while. So I was off driving down the road at 25mph and then it started I did not even make it 3 houses down and saw this tree.

After taking many different angles of this tree I thought to myself, man if I do not even get another shot all year this one is awesome. I was pleased with this tree and the memories I will have for a long while to come.

So once again I was off and running, I was driving down the road taking in the sights and I noticed over the lake a rainbow was just starting to form, I parked the car and worked my way down between the yards and got down to the lake and saw this one. I wish the rain bow was a little more noticeable but if you look you should be able to see it in the center of the picture.

By now I am really excited about this trip I was on and thought how could it get any better. I looked down and right at my feet this natural display of beauty was looking up at me. You can see the rain drops still being held by one of the leaves from this day.

Silent reflections of my afternoon out around Big Sandy Lake ~ It reminds me of why we first bought a lake place so many years ago. During this photo as I was setting up a Loon was just 80 feet or so from me. I must share with you the soulful call of a Loon is incredible it gave me the chills.

Big Sandy Lake is watched during the summer months by the DNR and they do it from the fire tower. I am standing at the top of the fire tower for this shot and overlooking Big Sandy Lake. Big Sandy Lake and all of it's waterways is just over 10,000 acres of navigable waters. It has 23 Islands and the deepest part of the lake is just in front of you in this photo 84 feet deep.

Real Estate on Big Sandy lake goes from the low 200's to over 2 million for a 12 acre estate, we have new construction town homes on Big Sandy as well as new single family homes.
