The one lane bridge over the Standing Stone Lake. I always loved going over this bridge as a kid, and I still do. We spent a lot of time in this park when I was growing up. We would rent one of the cabins for a week and spend most of our time at the swimming pool. So many cherished memories in this park!

Terry took this picture of me from the top of the bridge.

View from the boat dock. The leaves were so pretty!

Wildflowers near the boat dock.

I took this shot below the dam. They were having the 14th annual Standing Stone car show while we were there. Two Labrador pups are in the foreground. I'm not sure who they belonged to. They followed me around as I took pictures :0)

Standing Stone State Park

This past Saturday was a gorgeous fall day for a road trip. Me and Terry packed up the truck and headed to one of my favorite Tennessee state parks of all time, Standing Stone! This is the view from the overlook where we stopped to have lunch. On the way out of town we stopped at KFC and grabbed a bucket of chicken and fixings.

Terry chowing down in the picnic shed while I set up the camera and tripod. Even though there was an antique car show going on in the park, we had the place all to ourselves.

I made it a point to bring my camera shutter remote so I could get a couple of shots of me and the hubby :0)

After lunch it was back to the overlook for one last look

and a gratuitous photo of the hubby and me. More pics from Standing Stone to come.

Fall Berries

Red berries on a plant in our hedgerow. Not sure what these are, but they sure are pretty!

The Leaves Are A Changin'

"Come, little leaves,"
Said the wind one day,
"Come over the meadows
With me, and play;
Put on your dresses
Of red and gold;
Summer is gone,
And the days grow cold."

Fall Colors 2011

All of these photos were taken in and around my yard 4 days
ago. After the recent rain and wind most of the leaves are gone.
The only leaves remaining are the bradford pear trees.

The maple trees in our front yard are finally
showing some color.
