I saw this wonderful thing...a funny seed pod opened up and it looked like Einstein's hair!
The once green grasses by the pond are all golden...
A deer munching on fallen apples from a tree that was left to grow wild on some abandoned property.
These grapes were green and surrounded by leaves the last time I took a photo of them. There are only a few sad little ones left, and the birds will find them.
The wind came up while I was walking and it turned the stroll into something out of a fairy tale, with leaves blowing around me like I was walking in a snow globe. It was lovely, and I watched two crows catch the updrafts and twirl and dive with the gusts. Even the trees seemed happy, dancing this way and that.Of course, tonight a full-on storm is blowing outside my windows. The temperature has dropped and the wind has gone from playful to agressive. I imagine the last of the leaves will be gone from the trees tomorrow.
I'm supposed to be going to a movie - the new Bruce Willis flick - but I'm wondering if a blanket and a cup of hot chocolate (and Bailey's) isn't a better idea....

What wonderful pictures. Really makes me yearn for what I gave up years ago. Thanks for sharing these pics and reminding me of what it was like.

A blanket and hot chocolate it probably a better idea on a cold stormy night. But then again... it's not winter yet! The new Bruce Willis movie looks good. Beautiful pictures, thanks for sharing them!
ummm I think with the weather as it is... Baileys and hot chocolate with a dab of whip cream sound good...
I prefer my hot coco with a dash of peppermint schnapps, complimented with some mint from my garden. Best thing if you like mint chocolate.
Sounds like a wonderful walk and the pictures are gorgeous. I am liking the hot chocolate idea myself.
(((HUGS)))
Beautiful photos - thank you for sharing! It's so good to get out there and take a moment, isn't it? Oh! And your Einstein's hair (I love that visual hehe!) is milkweed! =) But from now on I just may call it Einstein's hair because that is awesome. Much like you. ;-)
You inspired me to go outside! How cute is the deer in that pic! I have never tried hot chocolate with baileys it sounds yummy! I am taking Phoebe for a long walk! Thank you for that!
Brightest blessings!
What a wonderful walk! Thank you for taking me along. The pictures are great!
Hope you stayed warm during the storm - winds can be quite cruel this time of year.
Beautiful walk.
Beautiful pics. I am so gonna miss autumn. Now that we are waking up frost on our windows I am only too aware that frozen winter is at our doorsteps. And winter in michigan aint no joke lol
Beautiful shots! Love the milkweed! :)
Looks like you got your wish from a few posts ago...a little more autumn. Wonderful!
Hot chocolate and baileys every time over Bruce, yet thats why I have all the die hard films on DVD! Your walk by the river sounds lovely!
Such serenely lovely autumnal photos. I know those wonderful, earthy Okanagan tones well and love that I get to be reminded of them through your beautiful posts.
Wishing you a marvelous, relaxing weekend, sweet dear,

Is there a better way for us to worship than taking a simple walk in nature and seeing all her beauty?
I don't think so. :)
These pictures are so beautiful! I want to live where you live. LOL

boo
Such a wonderful way to connect with nature!! Your walk sounds lovely! I love all the same - the blowing leaves, the river, and of course...... the BAILEYS ! :)
Sounds like a wonderful time !
I love these autumn pictures and recognize the feeling of having such a daytime spending and then in the evening hear the wind outside when being safely at home.
Oh your stroll sounds lovely and a bit melancholy all at the same time. And I laughed about Einstein's hair...so true! I think the blanket and hot cocoa sounds nice! :o)
