One Word Photo Challenge: Autumn

Posted on October 13, 2015 by joseph elon lillie under C.cada: Arts and Stuff, For Family & Fun, Photography

Jennifer has challenged us to show our readers autumn with our photos.

You can see lots of fallish photos by clicking the link above.

Here in New England we just passed Columbus Day (which in Massachusets is a statewide day off). It is one of the last days for outdoor activity here in the North East from here on out we are preparing for and expecting winter.

That being said, Amanda (my oldest daughter) , Brenda (my sister) and I took a ride north to do the quintessential Yankee activity on Columbus Day. We went leaf-peeping.

This is the river between Chesterfield and Brattleboro VT.

The Westminster Baptist Church, Westminster MA

We went as far as Bellows Falls Vt. and the world famous Vermont Country Store.

Enjoy the autumn everyone. Snow will be flying soon enough!

Day two into my vacation and still no plane…I had a little farther to travel on this journey before I could even board the jet. God told me in advance I had things to do, necessary preparations, before I could take my window seat on flight 613.

In 1997 I went to England on a missions trip in April during my daughter, Amanda’s birthday. She wasn’t happy. This year I was scheduled again to be gone to Europe on her birthday. I joked with her that her birthday was really good to me and that she should have them more often. Still I wanted to make sure we celebrated together before I left.

We traveled up to Keene, New Hampshire and had a birthday dinner at The Olive Garden and then walked through the Old Colony Mill Mall. We stopped to listen to this gentlemen playing the piano. We visited Michael’s Craft store and then drove into Dublin to visit a favorite used bookstore of ours.

On our way home we stopped for some photo opportunities.Winter has not entirely left our region but spring is on its way if the rushing of the rivers is any indication.
