Fabulous Fall Day…

We went for a walk and enjoyed the pretty Fall colors.  Even in Texas we are seeing some leaves changing!

Natural beauty…

So pretty…these colors inspired some new necklaces…

Horse apples are all over the ground…they look like tennis balls!

As we were walking past the creek I thought I saw something moving… as I got closer I saw it was this Heron.  He came out of his hiding spot and flew away…but I caught a shot of him before he got away!

We heard some noise in a tree nearby and look who we saw.  And he saw us right back!

Peek-a-boo…

Look what I can do…

Upside down and all around…

All that exercise makes a squirrel hungry!  This lil guy put on quite the show so cute!

As we were leaving the trail our friends were just starting their evening tandem bike ride.
