For the Love of October

It's certainly been a while hasn't it?

I am currently blaming the lack of blog-o-sphere action on the fact that I actually thought I was forever locked out of my account due to google owning every email service on the planet.  Let's just say things got rather complicated and I now have to log in with an address that includes % signs and words that don't make sense...(oh technology)

In case you've been in a box for the last few weeks, I am here to inform you that it is gloriously, and most officially AUTUMN.

Let's take a look, shall we?

It smelled like fall today.  That crispy, comforting smell of fallen leaves beginning their transition back into dirt.  I'm tellin' you - I love it! (although my unenthused face in this picture would beg to differ...)

What's another thing I love might you ask?  Why it's this absurdly bat-winged-flowy shirt that I plucked from a heaping clothes dumpster pile at the end of last year!

(Just look at how it immediately improves my otherwise hopeless attempts at modern dance!)

And looking stoic.  I'm telling you, if you ever need to look stoic, nothing will do it like loopy-shoulder-cut-outs.

Also, there were many lovely trees with many gnarly roots that were just begging for me to creepily smash my face of them.  I mean, it's almost Halloween right?

But enough of me...let's get back to this autumn I'm talking about!

These next two pictures were taken from opposite sides of the same bridge.  One side is the more metropolis-view, the other a much more natural one.  It's quite amazing really.

So happy continued autumn and October! 

Take all the paths that intrigue you, and don't forget to crunch around in some leaves!
