Over the river and thru the woods,
Oh, how the wind does blow!
It stings the toes and bites the nose,
As over crispy ground we go.
Sometimes, you just have to grab an extra blanket, maybe even a fishing pole, or two, hop into the car, drive to where the sun sets deep into quiet shades of autumn and leave the rest of the world behind.
Yes, yesterday was one of those days.






















Beautiful pics. We just took a trek like this today... I haven't even had time to post about it yet. We had a blast. Something about the weather just lends itself to this type of outing.

Beautiful! I miss fall. Where I live there are no seasons besides HOT and not hot. There is no cool or cold. Occasionally rainy. I miss cold days, sweaters, boots.

I hope you enjoyed the day. I'm having days like that. Ithink I'll take your advice. Autumn is a spectacular season that invites you to enjoy those deep shades and setting sun.

Oh... what would we do without seasons? I love the bare trees and crisp air. Makes the fireplace all the more welcoming!

I have metroparks right by my apartment and the BF and I never go enough. I'm such a "talker" about going and we've only been a few times this fall. I should put it on my weekend of things to do.
