Indian Summer ends with windy, snowy flourish



            So much for that earlier post of only a few days ago bragging about Bend’s string of extraordinarily  balmy Fall days.
            From the 60s on Friday, Oct. 25, Saturday morning emerged cool with blue skies before a fast moving cold front brought rain in town and snow in the high country.
            Then by Monday morning came a dusting of snow with temperatures hovering in the 30s at midday.
            The result is that inflection point among outdoor enthusiasts, with snow sports types wishing for more of the white stuff and others hoping to squeeze in another warm day fly fishing or mountain biking.
