Finding fall

Rob and I have always enjoyed the beauty of nature. When we were dating, we often would find an elevated spot and together watch the sun set. While we were living in Missouri, we looked forward to the early morning country scenery we would drive through enroute to the temple. On these trips, we would often point out to each other objects that you could find in a photograph, for instance an old silo with a tree growing out the top or a rusted crane broken and sitting in a field next to a ditch. Together we have seen some beautiful landscapes, but many that we have seen don't compare to what we've experienced here this fall. Because of the multitude of trees on the surrounding hills, the changing leaves created a patchwork effect of different colors. Everything was so beautiful. We had to share some of it with you. Rob took some of these pictures at a nearby nature preserve, one in upstate New York, and one at a covered bridge near a neighboring town.
