Autumn

Thursday, October 23rd, 2008

The smell of autumn was very strong in the air as we walked in the woods today.

Much stronger than it had been earlier this week.

It was a new territory today and there was more grass than we normally find in the woods.

The sun was warm - there were even a few dragonflies flitting about as we walked along.

Coming back down the hill was when the autumn scent really hit us.

The soft breeze was coming from the forest, across the sun-warmed grass, and onto our faces - we were too out of breath to notice it on the way up.

We enjoyed this delicious smell all the way back to the car.

Another gift from mother nature!
