Fall Colors

I love fall.  One of the best things about living in Michigan is the beautiful scene of color each October as the leaves change.  This weekend is essentially the peak of color for the season, so I snapped a few pictures during my run yesterday morning down on the Riverwalk.  Then yesterday afternoon we headed up to Wixom Lake for one last trip to the cabin.  We wanted to enjoy the beautiful weather, see the colors, and pick some apples from the very old tree down by the water.  Today we loaded up Lucy again and headed out to the State Park for a walk on the trails and a picnic lunch with cider and donuts for dessert (and a bone for Lucy).  Here are a bunch of pictures from the weekend:

 The Riverwalk in Bay City - I LOVE the running paths around here!

More beauty on the run
 Apple picking.  Why are all the good looking apples always just out of reach?

 The colors at the lake were gorgeous!

 Family picture time!

 Enjoying a relaxing walk through the woods (with the pup).

 Great trails out at the State Park too.  So lucky to have this great place 15 min from the house.

Beautiful colors out around this pond.

Lucy really liked walking the trails.  She tried to say Hi to every dog we came across.

 A view of the Bay across the beach.  It was a picture perfect day all around.

Picnic lunch: egg salad sandwich to share and my fall must-haves: cider and apple cider donuts.  Yumm-o!

 Loving this


I think puppy had a great day too.  She got a bone while we had lunch, and enjoyed laying in the cool grass while Josh and I took in the views.
