Thanks for the one
I begged for an adventure. It got to that point. Fall just wasn't seeming fall without going exploring with my boys. Somewhere. Anywhere.
They relented, and on a warmish afternoon I gleefully packed up my long-neglected camera and water bottles all around, and we went straight from school to the State Park. Apparently trail-walking is still acceptable, even if your mom is tagging along. Our one single adventure for the year.
Weather has been all over the place for us, and our poor leaves don't really know what to do. Half of them have fallen to the ground still green. But a little bit of color has started emerging over the last few days, and it's gorgeous as always.
We hiked and talked and peeked in old barns and, under threat, the boys sat somewhat close together for a few photos. Stayed longer than we planned, because who can resist crunching through the woods, breathing a cool breeze, soaking in the waterside beauty, and the lure of a playground you've very much outgrown?
Happy fall, y'all.
