Train Trestle

Train trestle over a flood control canal.

Hanging On

Pretty much all of the leaves have fallen, but there are one or two trees around that just refuse to give up their colors. This tree was especially brilliant.

Turkeys

Almost everyday, we see turkeys in the field across the road. This was part of a flock of about 20 birds.

Shimmers

As the sun shown through the window and onto the wall in the family room, the heatwaves from the woodstove danced along the wall. It was very, very interesting to watch.

Fungus

I discovered this beautiful fungus growing on our pool fence.

Late Fall Bloom

We have had a nice run of unseasonably warm weather. Several perennials in my garden are still hanging on. This Simplicity Rose blessed me with this lovely bloom.

Golden Trees

Everywhere you look right now you can see lovely trees of yellow, gold, orange and red. This is a favorite times of the year.

Flying Geese

We are seeing the geese fly over daily. They love the corn field across the road which has been chopped. When they fly over low, you can hear their wings whistle. I love living in the country.

Fall Colors

The trees are in full color right now. There are still a few trees that are green, but most have some color and it is beautiful.

Crosses

As I waited at the church last evening to pick up Bessie from a youth activity, the sunset, blue sky and clouds made a wonderful scene. I caught the three crosses silhouetted against the dimming light.

Mist in the Valley

Saturday morning, early, we headed out to visit friends in Maine. As we hit the top of Hogback Mountain, the sun was coming up and the view was gorgeous. The fog had settled in the valleys and fall colors were lovely. Brian stopped long enough to let me take a few shots.

Simple Wonders

The kids have a great fascination with the new washing machine, especially Dan. I can often find him in this position watching the clothes go back and forth. Oh, to find such wonder in the simple things.

Moon Over Wing

The moon was coming up yesterday evening and as we were leaving the balloon fest. I thought this looked interesting over the wing of the LC130.

Clowning Around

Just clowning around in a hot air balloon.

Ripples

We recently went geocaching around this reservoir. It was a gorgeous day and I caught this kayaker paddling across the water. It was so peaceful.

Fuzzy Wuzzy

This little guy was crawling across our picnic table. After some research, we have decided it is a Banded Tufted Tussock Moth...that is a mouth full. He was very pretty.

Golden Tinge

We are getting into one of the loveliest times of year in the northeast. The trees are taking on a tinge of gold and will soon burst into color. The nights are getting cold and the days are warm and wonderful.

Reflections

I love my garden pond. (I'm pretty sure I've said that before! ) Every time I stop there is something to enjoy, this time it was the lovely reflections of the bright blue sky.

Summer Gold

We are still getting corn out of our garden. It was planted later than usual and it is nice having fresh corn so late in the season.

Little Piggies

I wonder where all these little feet will travel in their lifetime.
