Autumn Hillsides

I generally don’t like taking “scenic” photos.  I would like to hone in on a subject rather than try to capture a massive expanse.  Today, however, I did spend some time wandering around the hills surrounding our area. The views were exhilarating, at times leaving me feeling as though intoxicated!

While driving home from the Bible study last night,  the kids and I discovered that the flashing red lights on the wind generators to the south of us can be seen from the top of our hill at night.  Perhaps that is why I was (subconsciously) drawn to explore the hills that house the wind farm today.

 The leaves on the trees are just so colorful and breathtaking!  It is an unusually beautiful year.  As each day comes to a close and the darkness creeps in around the edges, I feel so sad, as I cannot remain outside, enjoying the goodness that surrounds me.
