One of the daily newspapers on Friday said this would be the peak color weekend in the Twin Cities. I think they were wrong.

But if you've got some peak color pictures -- especially you, Bluff Country -- send them along.

update Mon 7:13 a.m. - My colleague, Nikki Tundel, sends along this work of art, suggesting that it's peak color on the ground.

I'd have to agree, it was past peak. I went flying today and it wasn't as scenic as I thought it'd be.
