I love that the colors of summer still shine brightly against the beauty of the changing leaves.
As Alys counts down to Halloween, I count down to this weekend’s ride!
Three Days!!
Life on the Bike and other Fab Things
Whether it's one simple yet somehow perfect day or a dreamed about journey finally realized, I never want to forget the joy of the moment or how fortunate I am!
Life on the Bike and other Fab Things 
Can you see the virtual thumb trying to hitch a lift here?? 😀
Come on! Heading to the Great Smoky National Park (I would have shared the link but it just leads to a Government Shut Down site … grrrrrr … ridiculous US politicians!!!)
I wish, my current bank balance might get me to the end of my road.. 😦
I see what you mean about contrast LB and I love it. Awesome shot and have a great day 😀
Thanks Joe! One and a half more days and then I’m off for four days on the bike 🙂
Cool 😀
Is the National Park open during this shutdown? – Are you driving around it? Great photo and have a wonderful time!
The main road through the park is open, so I’ll ride that. I worry it will be one long line of cars, but I’ll be prepared for that and see what happens …
me, too 🙂
Thanks!
Surprisingly, my hanging box is still blooming along, it does stand out on the block now since most things have bid adieu. I like how you focused on the foreground and blurred the background in your photo. I need to practice this more. How do you decide what to pack? Here it can be freezing in the morning and really warm in the afternoon…it’s hard to know what to wear.
You hit on the challenge. It’ll be high 40s /low 50s in the morning, so I’ll be all geared up. By early afternoon, It’ll be jeans and a sweatshirt. Thankfully, I’m only out for 4 days so there’s plenty of room!
Hurray! Only three more days. Love the contrast in the photo, Laurie. Thanks for the pingback. That was a nice surprise.
We’re both counting down 🙂
love the colours…don’t blame you I’d be excited myself for the road trip…
Thanks, Heather. Even though we are early in the change, I’ve already seen some stunning color. How ’bout where you are?
we are near the end of our colors…we had some beautifully vibrant reds, but not as much as other years…we had a great deal of rain in the spring.
have a great week end,have a few beers for me
Oh you know I will Callie 🙂
beautiful and colorful 🙂
Thanks so much!
Oh, nice! That’s a wonderful combination! So vibrant! 🙂
Thanks Robert 🙂 I’ll be posting one more little photo before I head off on the bike tomorrow and it is truly vibrant!!
