In Search of Fall Color...
Posted in Show and Tell Friday
Happy Friday! It's time again for Show and Tell Friday with Canadagirl - please do pop over to visit Mary if you'd like to take part or visit the other S&Ts today.
Last weekend hubby and I took our boys and niece north in search of some fall color. It was mostly on the ground yet (low-lying plants that had turned a lovely red hue), but some trees were beginning to turn ever-so-slightly. We went to one of our favorite parks, and lo and behold what should we find? Not one, but TWO trees in full color - standing next to each other no less. So, while those photos are a bit strained for proper proportions and all, I *had* to work them into some photos. I was aiming for school photos of the boys, but these didn't turn out to my satisfaction, so I'm going to have to do something else. I'm disappointed, but I did the best I could at the time considering that there was a middle school and high school track event going on all around us, and my batteries were dying and I had no spares. :P
Anyway, all we pretty much did was easy hiking, exploring, and just enjoying the day. Enjoy!

Hi Shani! Looks like you had a wonderful day! Things are beginning to turn colors here, though we are not at peak yet. Another week or two. But it sure feels like fall--brrr! Wet, windy, and chilly (50's day, 40's night).
God Bless,
Lori (aka Plans4You and Serenity in the Suburbs)

The best time for photos is with an autumn background. Great idea for school pictures - I believe I will steal it for my household, too! If it will stop raining, that is.

Sounds like a wonderful day!
We have fall colors, but there's so much rain we can hardly get out to enjoy them. Today promises to be sunny, though.
Thank you for adding me to your friend list!
