Last Thursday night we went for a quick walk before dinner. We know our sunshine is getting dimmer and dimmer each day we get home from work. We arrived back from our walk around 6:30 and barely made it in before the sunset. That is the one thing I dislike about winter – the lack of sun. We got some well needed fresh air, I got to take pictures, and the kids ate some pb&j sandwiches in their wagon under a heavy fleece shirt while we walked. There were plenty of water fowl around – mostly the ducks and geese. The kids were mostly concerned about acquiring sticks to wack at things as they went past. That’s experiencing nature right there People. 😉
One child cooperated for pictures, and right after I took this shot of him I stepped on my Ray Bans. Crap.
Look at those eyelashes…why do the boys always get those long full lashes??
Nice!!! I made hubby take me out yesterday after the clouds lifted so I could take some photo’s up thru the leaves lol. Please tell me there will be something worth photographing during winter!!
Love the last two photos ! And those leaves … I miss the changing colors of the trees ! It doesn’t happen much here.
The close up of the duck is so lovely. I feel like I am peeking through the trees.
Great shots Stacy, bummer on the Ray Bans. What great walks you guys must have to go to this beautiful nature preserve and eating their pb&j’s all nestled together sounds so sweet.
More amazing natural beauty! Thanks for sharing…I LOVE all of your fall shots…it makes me feel like I’m getting to experience a bit of the season up there!
I wish we had such a lovely place to walk around I tell ya! When the time changes it’ll be dark so quick it does make me a little sad. As much as I love the fall the time change I do not love. I wish the sun lingered just a little bit more.
Those are some seriously stunning photos, Stacy! Wow.
So sorry about your glasses, but Kai in the bomber jacket?? Hmmm…that photo might be almost worth some Ray-Bans! 🙂
You really do live in a beautiful place – and I’m so glad we all get to experience it through you! Dusk here is about 7:30 right now, which is perfect in my book. Perfect timing to head inside and get that little girl into bed!
I am so jealous that you are closed to a body of water like that. I love the muted tones in the last picture. I also wonder why boys get those gorgeous lashes.
The colors in the first picture of the leaves are amazing! I agree about disliking the lack of sunshine. My son also has the most amazing eyelashes – long, thick and black. I, on the other hand, have practically clear eyelashes (the curse of being a redhead!).
I haven’t been by in some time Stacy, your photos are as stunning as ever. Simply brilliant!
Sigh! Looking at these beautiful photos just made me feel like I was on a mini-vacation.
Stacy these are lovely! The leaves are only starting to change around here…I can’t wait until we have some of those vibrant colors too!
Well I guess since the sun is diminishing you won’t need those sunglasses as much right? Bummer!
