Fall Colors on the Old Mission Peninsula: Road to Mission Point Lighthouse | Jane Boursaw Photo
It’s been a windy week on the Old Mission Peninsula, so we’re losing a lot of our leaves and fall colors. Last night was a cold and sleety one for trick-or-treaters, but it didn’t seem to deter the tiny ghouls and goblins on Sixth Street.
We found ourselves in town around 5 p.m. and wandered down Sixth Street to take a few pics. Check them out over at Old Mission Gazette’s Instagram account here (scroll through this post to see all ten pics).
And here are a few photos of the fall colors around the OMP. What a beautiful stretch of land. Even though I’ve lived here my whole life (59 years and counting), I never take any of it for granted.
