The first meetup on the first day of October gave us a hint of fall in the air (63F) but a still very summer-like lake (66F). As typical of October, we had a magnificent sunrise. Plus we had several new visitors who earned their world-famous Lake Monster numbers! Overall, a great way to start out the new month!
