Wildflowers in Woods
The woods around Salamonie River State Forest are filled with an abundance of wildflowers.
Tree by the Lake
There are several of these empty trees by the place where boats are put into the water. They are so interesting because of the amount of limbs close to one another.
Turkey Cove Nature Trail
This nature trail is an easy hike where a guest will find an abundance of wildflowers.
Sunlight on Ferns
The sunlight filtering into the woods through the trees was breath-taking. I shot this pic on the Turkey Cove nature trail.
Clematis
This gorgeous flower is growing in the tended garden at the Interpretive Center at Salamonie Lake. All of the plants are lovely.
Frost on Fungus
I have found a fascinating fallen trunk at the Salmonie Dam's tail-waters. The frost on the fungus was gorgeous.
Happy Munching
This little fella was so intent on snacking that he didn't mind one bit that I was photographing him less than 3 feet away.
Fall Festival Fun
Campers were lining up for their tasty lunches while the kids and some adults were trick or treating from site to site.
Campground Decorating
Each camp site was encouraged to decorate for the festival. This is just ONE of the hundreds of displays that families chose to show off their fun sides
Waiting for a Hayride
The park has two large tractors pulling folks around the park as part of their annual Fall Festival.
Pumpkin Fun
Salamonie Lake has a wonderful celebration in the fall. The campgrounds are decorated by the families. There's pumpkin carving, hayrides, contests, trick or treating, music, and all around fun.
Shades of Pink
