Out There {October 2023}

We're starting this post in the middle of the month since all the other outside things we enjoyed while out of the state I just included on separate posts. Here you'll find everything outdoorsy that we did once we got home. What a lovely October it has been! We missed the peak leaves in the valley, but it was still a beautiful month.

(Clouds breaking up, finally, but well past the time we were
hoping to see the eclipse.)

10.14.23
(I took I nice long walk around the neighborhood. It was
so good to walk!)

10.14.23
(lots of folks pretty upset about some new
development planned in our little town.)

10.14.23
(I'm so happy to see the lake so high this late in the season!)

(I mean, wow!)

10.15.23
(Gregg texted me form the church
to look outside to the north. It took me a minute
(and it may take you longer) to spot the
hot air balloon shaped like an orca wayyy
over by the hills. ha!)

10.17.23
(New England isn't the only place with mushrooms -
check out our backyard!)

I was so shocked to see how low this lake is!)

(we found a nice sunny spot off the trail (but the sun was
going fast) near the top to eat our gromlets for dinner.)

(Better lighting with Gregg's phone and angle.)

(we had two really crazy interesting spiders
hanging out in the front of our house. This one
had made a web in the corner of the garage door.)

10.22.23
(and this one - that orange thing in the middle -
made its home on our garbage can)

10.24.23
(spectacular sunrise on the walk to choir)

10.24.23
(and walking home from choir in the leaves was
a joy!)

10.30.23
(I thought there would be a better path around the lake
from the secret beach to the old highway beach, but I 
ended up having to bushwhack through lots of these for a bit)

10.30.23
(more beach visible at Old Highway, but the road isn't)
