Quiet Autumn Images – An Internet Riff With Mark Graf

I finally got away to the northwoods of Wisconsin, the Michigan Upper Peninsula, and even the North Shore of Minnesota for a few days this fall! I was really hoping to catch peak color this year, but as I was driving up there was a big wind- and thunder-storm that blew down a lot of…
