Haiku of the day.. maybe of the year, since I'm not a huge fan of Haikus...

It's raining outside

I sit happily indoors

childhood memories...

Is this not the most adorable picture ever!?  Yes, I am doting on myself, but only on my childhood self.  Nick and I were such happy kids.  This picture makes me want to really dive into the autumn season for all that it is worth.

have some flowers!

Ok, so this picture was taken this summer, but I needed something to cheer me up today!

Flowers from mom's garden that I arranged for a friend this summer.

running in the woods

I explored in the woods on an unknown path.  It was nearly 5pm and the daylight was fading quickly.  Further and further away from my car I ventured, and when the sun hid its light behind the horizon I knew that my time of illumination was closing quickly.  So I ran.  And I ran.  And I ran.  My adrenaline pumped my legs as I leapt over tree stumps and bound up rocky pathways, my heart beating like a gong in my ear.  And then I arrived, feeling fully alive and positively refreshed.

apples in autumn

Went apple picking at "The Farm" in Fairfield with the lovely Amanda Adams yesterday...



the door was open...

The lift attendant's cabin was open, so we went in!



Sugarloaf in Autumn

Went up to the Loaf, the favored downhill skiing mountain, for some hiking.  It was 28 degrees at the top, but the fall foliage was wonderfully bright and the windy weather was invigorating.  Here are a few shots...

Picnic on the slopes

This is the first moose I've seen in the wild in 3 years.
