Eric and I visited his uncle's farm (Stoughton Farm) today--the last weekend day of their corn maze. It was a beautiful afternoon, but as soon as that sun went behind the hill, it got CHILLY!

335 - cat shadow
I was off work today 'cause I work tomorrow, and it was nice because I got to be home to enjoy the way that the afternoon sun came into the house.
I have to say, though, that I'm pretty excited about the forecast of a couple of inches of snow tomorrow! I hope that tomorrow's photo will include some white, fluffy flakes.

334 - simple
If only love were always simple.
I feel so grateful that I have relatively uncomplicated relationships with my husband and other family members and friends.

330 - autumn sunset
The sun was shining this afternoon, so I figured that I'd better catch it before it's gone.
329 - awesome ladies
My mom and my sister came to visit this weekend. It was great to spend time with them. I wish we didn't all live so far apart!

328 - sweeping
I did some cleaning this evening in preparation for a visit from my mom and sister. Although, as my dad said, "they're not too picky," so I didn't NEED to clean for them, it's good to have an excuse to do some housework that usually gets put off.

326 - ghostly fern
I was just playing around with zooming during long exposures...I didn't expect this effect, but I kind of like it.

323 - fistful of dessert
Eric and I participate in a CSA (community supported agriculture), and we've been getting a pile of vegetables each Tuesday this summer and into the fall. The growing season is mostly over now, though, and the farmers had a party for all of the CSA members this afternoon. It was a potluck, so you can imagine that there was a great variety of wonderful food available.
Eric went to get us some dessert, and when he came back, he said, "Take a picture of this!" Those desserts were delicious.
I've discovered that when Eric encourages me [bluntly tells me] to take a shot of something, he's often exactly right. (See this example.) I'm excited that he's taking more photos of his own, now that he's got an iPhone.

321 - love (Alex and Erin)
Our friends Alex and Erin got married. I loved that their feet were bare as they started out on the next piece of their journey together.
320 - sweater flower
We went thrift store shopping, and the sweaters were out in full force. There were some ridiculously amazing blinged-out holiday sweaters, but I settled on this slightly stodgy librarian-type sweater.
319 - driving in the rain
There's just something lovely to me about the way that the rain catches light. It makes me love stop lights and headlights and streetlights more.
318 - night glow
I notice the side yard more now that we're using the back door instead of the front.
316 - birch and fog
Driving back from Cooperstown the morning after the wedding, we encountered a bunch of fog. It was gorgeous.
315 - love (Rachel and Dan)
Our friends got married outside on the most beautiful day this fall. It was incredible. They're going to have so much fun being married!
314 - parkway sunset
The good thing about having to take a trip to Target was getting to see this sky.
312 - heat
While we're without a furnace, we have some space heaters around to keep us warm and toasty.
311 - night train
Yes, sometimes the train does seem spooky at night.
(Most of the time, though, it's friendly enough.)
310 - sprinkles
Here's what you get when you fool around with the light on your bedside table because you waited 'til too late at night to be inspired by anything real....
309 - adding apples
At the Fall Festival at Sky Lake, there was a demonstration of making apple cider. The kids got a kick out of putting apples into the grinder. This is our friends' little boy.
308 - cozy
While we're waiting for a new furnace, we have to bundle up on these chilly fall evenings.
307 - I was a high school senior once
I scanned some of my photos from high school and college. This one is from my senior year of high school.
306 - book piles
When we clean up hastily (as is often the case when company is coming), we end up with lots of piles.
