Autumn Is Here In All Its Glory

I took these pictures in a variety of places during the past week.

1 (13)Eli (Amish neighbor) had his corn fodder raked in rows so it could be gathered – probably as bedding for his horses.

1 (14)We had a heavy rain storm about 7:30 on Friday morning.

It didn’t last long, but the wind and rain pounded against our southwestern windows.

1 (15)Afterward I found this pretty leaf stuck to one of our windows.

It stayed there most of the morning.

1 (16)Today I took our four youngest grandchildren to Chuck-E-Cheeses and Overlook Roller Skating Rink (photos in a few days). It was a beautiful fall day.

1 (18)The trees in our yard were beautiful in the late afternoon sun.
