Although it was a bit overcast this morning, the sun was still shining on Hog Island and the mountains beyond. The lake was still and already, some incredible fall colors reflecting off the lake.

Hurry Leaf Peepers
For those of you who enjoy the ride up US Route 201 to see the incredible fall foliage unfold before your eyes, fair warning, you better hurry! The colors are changing fast. I do believe peak foliage is upon us.
It is getting cold out
Yes, that is a nice layer of fog over the lake. We cannot even see beyond the dock. It is about 40 degrees this morning but the sun is trying to come up so the fog is lifting.
It will not be long before the leaves all change, then fall and then here comes the snow 🙂
snapping turtles
While mowing the bottom yard (hopefully the last time for the season), Steve and his keen eyes spotted 3 baby turtles working their way down to the water. So cool ❗
This is just one of them which is only about 2 inches.
We cannot figure out where mom nested them but honestly, I am surprised that the neighbor cats did not capture the eggs…or maybe they did as we only saw 3 of them.
Fall ATVing in Jackman Maine
Back in June, I added a post regarding a video done by Destination Polaris. If you have not seen it yet on the Discover channel, you can also check it out on this U-tube link at www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjJkse7RXZ8
ENJOY ❗
Fall 2010 has begun
Our red maples have begun to turn here at Cozy Cove and yet, I think there is definitely more evidence of autumn on Johnson Mountain as well as in Dennistown. (even though both are only about 6 miles from town, both are at a bit higher elevation) Leaf peepers should be arriving soon 🙂
SEPTEMBER 2010 QUOTES from our Guests
September 20
Day 1. Put about 100 miles on our ATVs on the trails-went to the Canadian border and Coburn Mt. We had an excellent tour guide here named Jim. He and his wife Brenda have been coming here for 15 years ❗ We were awestruck by the amount of beauty surrounding us . At dusk, we came across a moose on the trail”-a large female and a huge male ❗ They were amazing”-it was a first for everyone to see moose. We also saw a red fox! Great Day ❗

We are so grateful to be here to be away form the rat race and enjoy the wilderness of northern Maine. We absolutely love Jackman and Cozy Cove Cabins. Hiking, Kayaking, rock climbing, 4-wheeling, and bear hunting. All have made for a wonderful experience, all the while getting plenty of rest. This trip has breathed new life into us and for that we thank our God in heaven and we thank you Tami and Steve for making our stay here very enjoyable.

Surfing the lake
Surfing anyone?
I am not sure if the winds are from Earl or from the cold front coming from the west but WOW 😯 are they blowing. Now where did I put my boogie board? 😆
