I had taken my friend, Eugene, to see his grandson play football in Onamia on Friday evening. Then we planned to go on to Duluth on Saturday to see the fall colors on the North Shore of Lake Superior. The trip didn't go quite as planned. The weather in Duluth was miserable...rain, fog, wind, and cold. So we called our grandkids that are attending college at the U of M Duluth and had them meet us at Grandma's Restaurant down by the lake. We spent a nice couple of hours with them visiting and having lunch . Since you could barely see the lake we decided to return to Onamia. We did see some pretty colors near Onamia and Mille Lacs Lake though. So it turned out to be a nice weekend in spite of the weather.
Here are a few of the colors we saw.
Since I was gone over the weekend, I didn't get around to visit all of you. Am trying to get caught up today.
I hope you all had a great weekend and will have a wonderful week ahead. Thanks for stopping by and I'll see you next time.

Love that barn in the first photo, and I love Grandma's! I've never seen a barn that color.
I love the barn, it is a neat looking shape. The Autumn colors are pretty. I especially loved the last shot. Enjoy your week ahead!
Beautiful pictures.
The color on that barn is just perfect for Fall.... seems like it's a little bit pumpkin colored.
Thanks for sharing :)

You made me feel so good about Monday. I am glad that you posted this barn. It's gorgeous, and very tall. Stands so proudly. Beautiful barn!!! Love this barn a lot!!!
Oh I LOVE that old barn it is truly unusual and totally awesome.
You are making me want to head to the bush with those beautiful photos and colours. Hug B
It's a shame the weather took a turn for the worse, Barb, but you still managed to get some great seasonal photos!

That is a beautifully coloured barn and perfect colour for fall. I'm glad you both got to visit your grandkids. It think that's pretty awesome that you all had lunch together. Glad the day turned out better than you thought and you got some really beautiful photos of the fall colours. Hugs, Pam
I LOVE the barn...so cool. And your fall pics are very nice too.
Historical barn and gorgeous photos of autumnal colors of nature ~ happy week to you ^_^ carol
What a great barn but the last image is just breathtaking!! I just adore autumn and that image my friend is one of the best I have seen this fall. Talk about a view, what a great, feel good image!!
A barn with lots of character and fun loft doors. Sometimes Plan B works out best after all as it did for you. Wonderful autumnal shots...so pretty!
despite the weather you did get some beautiful photos Barb'; it sounds like a nice outing you made the best of it. The fall colours are beautiful, and I'm trying to work out the roofing material on the lovely barn. It looks like bricks/tiles but that would be so heavy and difficult on a curve???
You are having some lovely fall colors there. The trees are not turning here. The leaves seem to be withering and dropping off the trees.
Beautiful pics, Barb. I heard the weather wasn't all that great this past weekend. I hope it is better this weekend. I want to go see some MN fall colors!
And the barn is orange, how perfect is that for an autumn image!!
I agree! I will always enjoy seeing your barn photos and what a grand barn it is, too! Twyla
I posted a barn too - can't miss that! This barn is a beauty and so are the Fall colors!
Love the wood of that barn! And lovely autumn colours too.
Barb, our boys play football against Onamia. :) This year our game against them was a home game, but we played basketball there this winter. I always enjoy driving down around Mille Lacs.
We were in Duluth in Friday, just as the clouds & sprinkles were moving in. Glad you had a nice weekend, and
great MN Fall photos!
Such a lovely barn and the colorful trees around the lake are just beautiful. Have a nice Autumn Tuesday.
Dearest Barb,
I love to see barns in my blog friends' posts as I have no chance ti see them♡♡♡
Wonderful autumn color!!! Thank you very much for sharing.
Lots of Love and hugs, xoxo Miyako*
Great photos Barb, and great time you must have had despite the weather interfering in your plans. Sometimes those impromptu meetings are the best.
Thank you for your great compliments and for the liking of jeans and 3/4 length sleeves, along with me. Those Hot Pink jeans are indeed jeans. I realized the other night that I don't own any 'pants', just jeans. Yay for jeans!!!
Oh that's a great barn! Lovely shots, the last one is superb with all that lovely autumn colour reflected.
So great photos, it's autumn colors with you too, I see.
It is so incredibly beautiful.
Have a nice day.
Fall colours are so pretty!
It's a handsome barn. I just love it's shape and colour. If only the weather would cooperate with us when we want to sight see and take photos! But hey! You seem to have found some great scenes for us to enjoy.
Gorgeous! I'm loving all of your fall color! We are just starting to turn around here. :)
That's a real beauty of a barn. It sounds like you had a great day in spite of the change in plan.
What a great big barn! It sounds as though you had a fun weekend , also - nice!
Gorgeous color, Barb and how nice to spend the day with your grandchildren. Sometimes the best laid plans are fun to change. Hugs xoxo
That's a great barn! It looks very big, too. You've got some beautiful fall colors!
Beautiful old barn and lovely fall colors! Love that last reflection shot!
Love the fall colors in the lake's reflection. I'm hoping we will have some color this fall here in Texas.
Hi Barb, What a awesome old barn. Love the fall photos too. Glad your outing turned out to be a good one inspite of the weather. This is my favorite time of year and thankfully we are starting to cool down a bit. No fall colors yet though.
Have a great rest of the week.
Hugs!
That is an awesome barn! The colors there are so much better than here.
That's too bad about the weather spoiling your plans but you managed to get some really nice shots of early Autumn in your area Barb.
Thank you for sharing at TM this week. xo
LOVE the barn, but your last image of the pond and the fall color is wonderful!
You did see some nice color. I really like that last shot - so pretty!
Oh Barb ... I love that barn ... never seen one that color. Just perfect for Autumn. The Fall colors bring back good memories of when we lived in Michigan and drove miles to see the color line.
Thanks for stopping by Timeless Treasures with a nice comment.
Love that you share your beautiful photos.

Unusual color for a barn! We had hoped to get to Duluth too, but getting two days strung together looks impossible. Grandma's is a fun place to eat! I enjoyed all your fall photos:)
Always beautiful photos of the barn! thanks for sharing..
Beautiful fall color photos. That is a nice-looking barn
Now I am on the hunt for white jeans! I should have got the ones I had my eye on in the summer. But at the time, they were too hot/think! dang, when that happens. Thanks Barb, for your nice compliments!
Well, I love your barn. I think the barns of the upper midwest are the best.
That is one gorgeous barn, Barb. And that last photo is stunning. Really beautiful. Minnesota always has the most lovely autumns. Have a great weekend.
These photos are stunning, Barb! Thanks again for the shout-out!
Gorgeous fall scenery filled with color and beautiful water, and the barn is out of this world. The wood is something else. genie
That barn is a real beauty!
