Fall Colors and Dogs

I haven't taken the dogs Across the Road much lately. I need to take the time to do that for them and for me. Here are some photos from a few days ago.         Leaves are turning color and falling.

                                                           They will be gone soon.

              The black walnut leaves are already gone. Or maybe this is one of the trees that is dead. I think the drought took it's toll on some of these.

             The view looking southeast.

               Ginny's ball was cracked and even with the "Chuckit" I couldn't throw it very far.             Rusty runs after Ginny every time she goes for the ball. Then he runs back with her but he doesn't always keep up with her now.

                 There were sunflowers in one of these fields and there were lots of seeds dropped on the road at harvest time. Now they are all sprouting.

                                                            This is Ginny while I was on the ground trying to take seedling emergence photos.

                                                                So you know that she put the ball right under my camera.

             Ginny, do you know that broken tennis balls don't float? She spent time looking for it after she had taken it into the canal.

                       Back at my driveway there were beautiful leaves to photograph. A wild grape vine.

             Walnut tree.

Happy fall!
