I don't know of anyone who doesn't love the fall colors that are showing up already in different parts of the country.
Here in Yellowstone, the Aspen trees are at their peak of color as are many of the bushes along the river banks. So when I saw the
mfp Inspiration Challenge #80 pictures of all the colors at Ruby Falls, I thought of fall and the changing of the season.
We leave in just 7 days and although I'm looking forward to heading east and out of the severe cold that prevails in these parts, I will miss this extreme beauty. It's easy to look out our back window and say, yeah, so, it's just mountains. But when someone new checks into our cabins and walks around the back taking panoramic shots it's like a wake up call of how majestic the landscape is around us!
This is looking from Yellowstone up to our cabins.
If you click on these pictures, you can see 2 trees between the 2 middle cabins above. Here is a picture taken from between the 2 trees out into the park. Just thought I would share!
I've been working with the Scripture that WordArtWednesday.com posts each week. Since I won't have access to a computer until mid-October, I'm working on creative ways to add the Scriptures to a card.
I heard today on the radio that we are less than 100 days away from Christmas. I will add to that we are less than 70 days from Thanksgiving and less than 45 days from Halloween.
In some parts of the U.S.A. it is raining and sweltering hot. In other parts it is already cold enough to turn the Aspen trees beautiful shades of yellow and orange.
When my kids were in school, especially when they were little, I was the only mom at the bus stop on that first day that was smiling as they boarded the bus. I still find it funny that moms everywhere cling to their little darlings and weep as they drive out of sight.
