Autumn colors to be best in 10 years

Minnesota are encouraged to keep the batteries charged and the camera tents and picnic baskets out of storage because the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is predicting the next season of autumn color may be the best in the last 10 years.

"With adequate rain during the growing season for two consecutive years, and recent weather conditions that relate to the ideal combination of warm sunny days and cool evenings, we are predicting a particularly vivid display of color across the state in the weeks to come, "DNR Forest Health Specialist Jana Albers said in a news release.

And the DNR has a tool to help contemplate color to find the best places to see fall foliagte.

Starting this week, reports dnr.state.mn.us / fall_colors / index.html include percent change color, projections of peak color, flowers and herbs in flower, and three state parks considered hot picks of the week. Reports are updated every Thursday by noon, and are available on smart phones, as well.

2011 Porsche 911 Carrera

Driving a Porsche in Germany as in rock-climbing Jeep JK that has a mountain to test a luxury yacht in the Mediterranean, flying a Long EZ-Oshkosh or guiding the Skycycle X-2 more than the Snake River Canyon - the machine can be an ideal choice for this place.

This has already scheduled European vacation personal, with relatives in Belgium - Yes, my wife and I are Belgian! - It was the perfect opportunity to revisit a 2010 Porsche 911 Carrera S in Deutschland.For a full week of the tour, I would have the chance to lead the venerable sports car almost a thousand miles through German Bavaria. The planned route was wandering through wooded forests, fertile land crossing and follow the banks of the Rhine. There would be days of climbing through the spectacular Alps, and many miles past zoom unlimited Autobahn sections.

My wife and I started our week in Munich, leaving Liege in Belgium, which has a metallic blue Mercedes, borrowed from an uncle.The colorful hues should have warned us as spotless-2010 Porsche Carrera S in metallic blue with bright yellow brake calipers on the sidewalk ahead.
