Lake Country
First frost on the lake shore
The week the reeds turned silver and the lake began, very slowly, to close.
Saskia Fern

The first frost came overnight. By morning the reeds were silver and a thin skin of ice had formed in the shallow bays.
It is a short window — a week, perhaps two — before the lake changes completely. Walk the shore path early, before the sun reaches the water.
