Pattison State Park

The lake at Pattison. I could edit this photo all day long...in the end, it will still be an overcast day.

Last weekend, my mother's side of the family gathered up in Pattison State Park for my cousin's wedding. Despite the cold, rainy weather, the ceremony was beautiful and went smoothly. The leaves had turned around the little lake there, so had it been sunny, it would've been an even prettier backdrop for the wedding. I've never been to Pattison before, but I'd definitely go back. The campground was pretty decent, and there were a lot of trails to be walked (however, not last weekend, due to the mud and well, the busy-ness of the wedding!).

On Sunday, my mom, nephew, Louie, and I went to check out one of the waterfalls. It was only misting, so I brought my camera along.

There were so many beautiful colors among the changed leaves. The photos never do nature justice.

I think this is Big Manitou Falls. We weren't really paying attention to where we were. Smart, I know.

The algae/moss/mold on that rock was so cool. Not so cool in the photo itself.

Louie was a good sport in the cold, misty weather. We left Dex back at the warm RV with my dad. 

The reflection on the lake was so beautiful. Reminded me of Reflection Lake near Mt. Rainier.

It was so ridiculously beautiful out, aside from the weather. I love the colors of autumn!

I've started to put little watermarks on my images now, having attended a workshop about copyright/legal issues via the Springboard for the Arts.
