a walk in the woods

captured on the way down

We took an hour out of our busy schedules to walk in a nearby woods, dodging falling leaves and scattered raindrops. I am fairly certain that a walk in the woods does more good for me than the new stuff the doc prescribed yesterday for the ol' systolic and diastolic. Almost as good as petting a dog. So it was gloomy with clouds, and spittin' raindrops, but we ventured in anyway. Some pictures:

It's been one of the best Falls I can remember for the leaves.

But it's been a good fall for leaves only if you get to see the leaves before the rain strips them off!

...and the rain certainly did a job last night around here!

The great outdoors ~ glad it did you some good. Now when are you gonna get that dog? ;)

When we were up in New England last month, everyone was saying how this fall is amazing due to the summer they'd had. Even that early the colors were spectacular. I'm so happy that you took this time to walk in the woods! And to share the gorgeous pics with us!

Now, about that doggie...I'm with Jen. :-) Or, if you'd like to visit SD sometime, we have one or two, or three, we can spare for petting and lowering of BP. :-) They'd love to meet you!

There'll be a dog one of these days, and when there is, no doubt we'll go all "dog blog" here.
