Wordless Wednesday: Autumn Day
Posted on by Mama's Empty Nest
Author: Mama's Empty Nest
Mama of this empty nest, I’m content to live a quiet, country life with my husband of 40+ years and to view gorgeous sunsets off our own back yard deck. Mama to three adults and Nana to adorable grandchildren, my empty nest fills up again with noise and laughter when they all return 'home'. A former English teacher, reporter/editor, education director for a non-profit organization, and stay at home mom, I retired after a season of substitute teaching at a private academy. Now I enjoy time spent with my grandchildren and family and writing words that seem to pour out of my soul or wandering around the countryside with my camera. Foremost, my faith sustains me as I meander through the empty nest stage of life. My favorite scripture is 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18: “Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” View All Posts

We only have maple trees in our yard with a couple of pines but I was just saying to my husband the other day that I wished we had some oak trees. There are oaks in our area but not in our yard and I miss acorns.

Oh I wish you could too! Autumn up here is so very refreshing. There’s something exhilarating about walking through the golden and red colored woods on a cool, crisp day with the nutty fragrance of fall in the air and the crunch of fallen leaves underfoot. Come on up and we’ll take a wall together!! 🙂

Oh Montucky, yours are going to be beautiful because of the scenic backdrop of mountains you have. I need to take a trip up to our national forest north of us to get some really good pictures of autumn in its glory.

An awesome shot! Wish we had that kind of color here.

As I told Dianna (see above), it’s kind of spotty here. Some vivid colors on some trees, not so much on others. I saw a friend’s photos taken in WV recently, and they were beautiful, so maybe color is on its way to you?

Gorgeous! Love fall foliage! We’re going to Boston next week, but we might be too late for the peak of foliage there. Might still be pretty good though. Lovely picture.

It’s my favorite season of all, CE. I hope you get to see exquisite color in Boston. The leaves are slowly turning here, so maybe they will be in full blown vividness when you get there. Have a great trip!!

Fall got a slow start here and it’s kind of spotty. Some trees are showing beautiful color like these and then there are some not turning yet or just starting to turn. It will move its way down to you soon, I bet! 🙂
