A totally gorgeous day in western NY. In Rochester they said the high was like 67, but my Jeep said it was warmer than that - and since we're about 25miles south of Rochester I'm sure it was right. After working in the yard raking leaves (kind of missed that time in November!) we went to Ontario Pathways. The sky was really greyed out most of the day, but overall it was such a gorgeously warm day. It might not seem like a big deal to be in the 60s, but normally the high is in the 20s !

We discovered this waterfall along the way. The last time we were here, it was just a trickle and looking nothing like it does in this pic.

I love this picture of the water. It is the shadow of the trees and the leaves you see are actually settled in the water.

More little waterfalls off of the big one.

Close up of the water. I swear it looks like beer.

This is what I was standing on. I take a lot of these kind of pictures because I love the texture.

This is one tree. I like the contrast of the bark. When the picture is bigger it looks like crackle paint on the left.

Tree roots. I think I am going to experiment with making this one black and white.

Fallen tree - cool,eh?


Here's a photo from my backyard. Oh look, we had 5 minutes of actual sunshine ! there are big, dirty piles of snow everywhere. I always think that's so weird when it's almost 70degrees.

Way more than one picture today ! I can't wait until it is nice all of the time here. It is so scenic here when it's nice and not a speck like NY City (which is what everyone thinks it is when you say you live in NY).
