Some NE TX Fall color... - The Firearms Forum

Crpdeth · 11-22-2008, 10:04 AM

I look forward to this time of year... I get so tired of working in the heat all summer, so I thought I'd celebrate the season's change by taking some pictures.

I love these ducks!

What river is that, Donny? The Sabine?

Creation is a beautiful sight in the fall of the year, even in Texas. Those were some nice pics. We didn't have a lot of color in Indiana this fall, i think it was due to the lack of rain.

Nice pictures.

Nice shots.

I wish I could celebrate the temperature change with you but its in the low 30's and getting dark by 3pm. I am still holding out on my pennies too, our house is normally around 55 degrees

.

I fear when we start hitting these below zero days I am going to have to relent and turn on the damn heater.

Donny, THIS is a truly awesome picture!

Thanks for sharing! Taking pictures is another of my hobbies that I'm kind of handicapped from right now, trying to take care of an 18 month old. Now I'm envious...

Simply gorgeous!

Bruce FLinch · 11-22-2008, 10:56 PM

Thanks Donny, Reminds me of my childhood...

Crpdeth · 11-22-2008, 11:29 PM

Rich, believe it or not, that lake and creek sits inside the track where I run and it sure makes things more enjoyable. I couldn't help but return with the camera and get a few closer peeks.

It is part of Coleman park.

Hey I hear ya... We seldom drop below 20 around here. My place is nice and toasty and I haven't touched the heater yet... I do like to turn the electric blanket on low for a few hours before I climb into bed, but I don't think that heater will be on much.

Thanks again for all the nice words, friends.

Here is a shot SoMo took last year in my home town in Connecticut while we were traveling there and to Maine. The fall colours had passed, but Glen Street still gave us a nice taste.....

Marlin T · 11-23-2008, 04:29 PM

Ahhhh, the memories. Thanks Donny and Marlin!!

To bad the sage brush don't change colors cause if it did this part of the world would be awsome in the fall.
