Fall at the Arboretum

It is a gorgeous fall day and I am in the mood to take some pictures and get some exercise at the same time.  Obviously, a day at the Dallas Arboretum is what is needed.  At this time of the year, the arboretum is filled with mums and pumpkins.  The colors are "my colors" and so I feel right at home here.

As we wander through the paths, the color is everywhere and it is actually putting me in the right frame of mind for Thanksgiving.

Everywhere we look -- mums of all colors and sizes.  I never even dreamed that this flower came in so many colors.  So much for thinking I knew plants and flowers.  The test gardens are truly resplendent in color and make one just stop and stare in amazement while drinking in the beauty of it all.

As we continue through the park, the many nooks and crannies provide one great photo op after another and soon Mister is shooting up a storm.

We never tire of the view of White Rock Lake no matter where we are at around it.  This little peek through the foliage is lovely as is the view from the reflecting pool below.  It makes it look as though the water is continuous instead of about 1/2 mile away.  Cool way to fool the eyes.

Another great day in Dallas.  So glad to be here and loving life.
