There were a lot of wonderful paths, roads, docks, dams, and other ways to travel these past few months. All of these are favorites, but one of them is my favoritest favorite. You are free to guess which one.

They are predicting a little bit of snow for the end of this week, but I don’t expect it to stick to the ground or last past an hour or less. Still, it’s a warning, the proverbial “shot over the bow” telling us that it’s time to get those leaves up, the lawn equipment put away, and shake the mothballs out of the winter coats!

  5. I think your favorite walk might be over the river, the first picture. I have been to a place called Hingham near Boston and the sights are a little similar to these there.

    • Hingham is a little more south, closer to the coast. A bit more built up than here, but still lovely. New England is just really pretty, almost everywhere. More rugged in the north, gentler down here, in the south. Not unlike old England, in a lot of ways.

  7. Some wonderful photos capturing the charm of Autumn. Tell my why those men love to take photos of our backs when we are walking? Mr. Swiss found that is a wonderful photo (so did I) – yes men stick together.

    • I think it’s because as soon as we know they are taking our pictures, we get all self-conscious. I know i do. i start to remember I’m fat, wish I had worn some makeup (ridiculous since i almost never wear makeup anymore), wonder if I should remove my glasses, etc. etc. Easier if we aren’t looking 🙂
