Bear and I took a Sunday drive. Do people still do Sunday drives? Well…this people does and Bear goes along joyously!

Fall light from the ridge…

… the ridge on the road home.

Happy Bear!

The plan was a drive to Woods Bay, about 4 miles south of Bigfork and 10 miles south of the road home. We stopped along the way at Wayfarer’s park and walked a bit there.

Onward.

Woods Bay.

Sorry…WAY out of focus, but I was driving and holding the camera and the main thing is THE COLOR!

And while the Rocky Mountains do not have the reds of the White/Green/Smoky/Ozark areas of the east…my own heart is a western heart and the gold of the Rockies is the perfect color for me.

Fall Color Tour: the Montana version.

P.S.

I could not resist.
