The first day of a workshop in Tennessee. Can we have fall on repeat all the time?
Fall Kayaking – The Spirit River
Another fall day, another beautiful river.
The Other Side of Autumn
Just because the leaves have fallen does't mean there isn't autumnal beauty to be found. No hiking required!
Frost between coffee
One mug of coffee on board and another in the wings, I hit the yard for some frosty goodness.

Finding my feet during my first Wisconsin fall. It was overwhelming, but leaving behind my preconceived ideas helped me really see.
