Two weekends ago Matt told me to get out on Engineer Creek Trail for some great views and Fall colors. He wasn’t kidding!
Engineer Creek Trail
While the day was slightly overcast, it didn’t take away from everything I love about Fall.
The trail was in great condition, very tacky. Matt has been climbing this trail on his bike, but I’ve always descended on it. Now that I’ve hiked up it, I can see giving this a try!
There had been rain the night before and I got a little on the hike as well!
Fallen leaves along the trail...
Our Fall colors are typically different shades of yellow, but every once in a while, we’ll get some bright orange Aspens, which are spectacular when the turn fully orange.
The following weekend we got hit with a cold front and I wasn’t able to hike. Maybe this weekend will be better. I”m hoping to get a little more before the leaves all fall from the trees. 
When I got home from the hike, I tried to put my shoes away and Jangles immediately jumped into the spot where shoes are supposed to go.

One evening Matt and I were wondering where the cats had gone…turns out they were upstairs staking claim to baby’s crib…again…

Fall is just starting to make itself known here in MO. Jim, Syd , and I have a backpacking trip planned for the end of Oct. The colors will be incredible.
Awesome! You all have great Fall colors. I wish we had the reds you get in MO.
Those pictures are excellent! What kind of camera are you using these days?
Can you believe I took those photos with the iPhone? iPhones take great outdoor photos.Indoor, not so much.
