Recording the Changes


I have been recording the changes in the park located near my house. The initial three pictures come from early October; the other pictures record what has changed in two weeks' time. More pictures are forthcoming. A friend who lives in Connecticut has been remarking on the particularly striking colors of autumn this year. The changes have not been as drastic, or as striking, in the middle of the country as of yet.

Early Autumn at Weston Bend State Park


Despite teaching five sections of writing this semester, I still manage to get outside occasionally. One of my favorite places to walk is at Weston Bend State Park in Missouri, which is just a short drive from where I live.  These pictures capture a few changes in color. The great majority of the foliage remains dense at this point in the season.
