September is almost gone

I figured I better get one last post in before September is torn off the calendar. The autumn colors are almost at peak here in Northern WI. On the weekend we went to the Keweenaw of Michigan for a geocaching event and to enjoy the colors. We were surprised that the colors were not quite as far as here, but we did find some pockets of crimsons and ochres that were gorgeous. We had a great time at the event at Fort Wilkins State Park a civil war encampment filled with man historical things to visit. The mining history in that whole area is mind boggling. Enjoy the crimson tree.

Macro Monday Sunflowers

I am able to participate in the Macro Monday once again. My grandson and I planted these together. They were all suppose to be the deep amber color but most came out yellow.

Geocaching

Last night we took our 20 month old grandson on his first geocaching adventure. His 5 year old brother has found caches before so he enjoyed teaching his brother the ropes. Our handle is "Timberline Echoes", eldest grandson is "Lil' Echo" and he named the youngest "Tiny Echo".
We carried the youngest one in, but he insisted on walking the 1/4 mile out on his own two feet. They both fell asleep on the drive home.

Calendar pages

Okay who is flipping the calendar pages so quickly??? Another week has flown by and I missed out on blogging. My goal may be to leave a post just once a week for a while. Hoping for a bit of a routine to unfold in my life soon. Right now it is time to prepare for company and two weddings to attend. I will find a photo to post anyway. Enjoy life!

Playing with templates

I have been playing with colors and templates today... changing to fall colors for the autumn season. One of my favorites seasons.
