Cool and Crisp

It was a perfect day for an October photo op at the ponds. Cool and crisp air surrounded me and the afternoon sunlight added a brilliance to all the colours that bounced around me.

   Hues of yellows, oranges and red are popping up everywhere.
The reflection of the sky on the pond creates a stunning shade of blue. 
The structures depicted are a combination of a century farmhouse and new suburban growth. Their setting seems so rural with a dirt path winding through their neighbourhood.

I am so glad to see such color and what a pretty pond.
We are holding our breath here that it will be a good fall season for color. You give us hope.
The header with the tinged lives really is wonderful.

Isn't it a beautiful time of year! Not to mention the re-emergence of last year's sweaters -- I'm like a rich woman over here!

p.s. And yes! I still get earaches -- can't be out in a cold wind for long without stuffing something into my ears. And it's funny that you mention my dad cooking for me -- I'm sure he did. Today's post is about that: food as an expression of love.

The water is gorgeous and the colors in the last photo with the greens and the tree stumps is so pretty.
