Our sexennial (I learned a new word) trip up to Alpena for Elk viewing.  Timing was perfect as the fall colors were at their peak!  A little cool so the wool blankets and hot chocolate were hits.  The final count was 29 including our friends from the Corvette Club of Windsor - Tom. 

Thanks to Tony for hosting the event.
