Autumn at Potter's Bridge

Yesterday was another gorgeous day! My son and I went to Potter's Bridge and walked around the trails and took a few pictures. I am trying to teach him what little I know about photography and Potter's Bridge is the perfect place for picture taking.

My son will be a senior next year so we also took some practice shots for senior pictures. I've done Sr. pictures for several girls and I have to say it is easier for me to pose girls than guys, they also seem to be more natural in front of the camera. At least my guy hates having his picture made so getting a pleasant face is kind of difficult. I think we both need lots of practice before next year!

Autum at Potter's Bridge

I had an opportunity to stop by Potter's Bridge yesterday. The leaves are not yet at their peak. With the cool rainy weather we've had recently it won't be long until all of the leaves will have fallen and winter will be here. I'm not ready for that! We've already, very reluctantly I might add, had to turn on the heater. I am ready for Indian summer to arrive, I sure hope we have one this year.

Potters Bridge

My son and I walked several times this week at Potters Bridge. I love this place in the fall when the leaves are turning. Some of them are beginning to turn and fall now. I love to come here when the leaves are at their peak and take fall pictures of my children by the river, there is a perfect spot for doing this. This year the river is really low and the leaves are very dry, so, I'm not so sure it will be as pretty as it was last year.

Today is around 90 degrees and it feels like summertime. Several fall festivals are going on today, but with it being so hot it is hard for me to get in the mood for a fall festival. I stopped by the farmer's market this morning on my way to the nursing home to visit and feed my m-i-l, and it was just too hot to enjoy the mums and pumpkins that were being sold. I went away empty handed. The temperature is supposed to be 90 on Monday and then drop to 60 on Wednesday. Next Saturday is the last farmer's market of the season, so hopefully the cooler weather will entice me enough to at least decorate my front porch for the autumn season that I love so much.
