It is always difficult to judge just when the trees will reach their peak fall colors, but we were reasonably spot on when we took a trip next to the St Croix River ten days ago.
Together with our friends Troy and Naomi and their two kids, we had a very nice drive out north east of the Twin Cities. An ideal breakfast source was not so easy to spot, but eventually we came to a family owned restaurant in St Croix Falls, were they were willing to serve us with a huge hearty breakfast at 11.30 in the morning!
Troy took some beautiful photos along the way – they can be seen on his journal at:

The weather played along and on the way home we could actually stop an enjoy an hour on a pumkin farm where we bought pumpkins for carving.
