The human soul is slow to discover the real excellence of things given to us by a bountiful Creator, and not until the shadows of death begin to gather around the object that we love, do we see its worth and beauty. Autumn is the dim shadow that clusters about the sweet, precious things that God has created in the realm of nature. While it robs them of life, it tears away the veil and reveals the golden gem of beauty and sweetness. Beauty lurks in all the dim old aisles of nature, and we discover it at last.  ~Northern Advocate

Beautiful fall colors! I hope the storms tonight don't blow all the leaves off the trees. I love your tall pumpkin!

Beautiful pictures! I love that tall pumpkin, too! In that very 1st picture, in the very bottom left corner, part of that cloud looks like a car - can anyone else see it? (When I clicked on the picture to make it bigger, it doesn't look like a car.)
