Autumn Colors

October 25, 2009 by Leslie (LadyMin)

The leaves are an exceptionally nice color this year, and they are staying on trees instead of dropping off in a few days so we can enjoy them.

I tried to go for a walk around the lake but it was overrun by geese. Lots of geese equals lots of goose poop. What a mess.

Too Many Geese

I moved on to a different park with a nature trail, birds, lots of pretty trees and no geese.
Churchill Park

A nice peaceful walk.

Another colorful trail earlier in the week.
