No real change to the report this week.  We have had milder high temperatures and more dry wind than before but that's about the only thing to report this week.  I have noticed that aspen colors are variable this year.  Those on our place turned color but were more dull than usual while in other areas not too far away the colors are brighter.  In general, in my travels the aspen colors are brighter on the east side of the Continental divide.  I'm not sure why that is, but we did have a very dry summer overall in this general area, so maybe that had a little to do with it.
