A lot going on, though maybe not the most of bloggable nature. Below I've attached a few photos of the wonderful changes of Fall.

Life rolls onward ...

The beauty of New England Autumn calls us ....



.... and for the insane shutterbugs we are, that means, well ... taking two steps, stopping, taking a pictures, taking 1/2 a step and doing it ALL over again. Stopping and, of course, admiring the art.



Setting out ...



Only they know what they are talking about



The epic out of focus jump



Running through the woods ... Amazing how a Autumn just adds that magical artistic feel to everything



Expeditious Art



After the "accident


Gosh I love this girl

"The groves were God's first temples. Ere man learned
To hew the shaft, and lay the architrave,
And spread the roof above them,---ere he framed
The lofty vault, to gather and roll back
The sound of anthems; in the darkling wood,"  William Bryant


My precious little imp



Can I tell you a story? Sit down ... Once upon a time ...

Hello Folks,
.
I am so excited to share a very special vacation in Maine. I haven't experienced God's beautiful creation like that in quite a while. 
.
Life is still rocking and rolling forward to fast to comprehend. 
.
So much to be thankful for ... so much still to figure out!
.
As always, 
Love in Christ Jesus,

Spending some time with the bros


Gotcha

Camping ... at last


With all our commitments, we finally found a chance to to get away.


Camping through the eyes of Jack ... "Ooh ... a thing"


"What does the "thing" taste like?"



"So many "things" to taste"


Tasting shmasting, time for some walking.

Daddy and Mommy needs time for true love's kiss



Up, up and away!



Never ending stairs



Nothing like hot soup cooked over the fire at the end of a great day hiking. 


Still time time for the sunset



And such a sunset it was


Art


A little privacy please!


With no bears in sight, I guess this little goober will have to do for the "wildlife"



Next day, it was time for some adventure. Seriously ....


Look at that sign! I guess some people just like to over exaggerate things.


Why this is a mere roll in the hills. 


A bridge with railings! Yep, it's gotta be safe.


Bekah begins to wonder about the man she married. 




Around the corner ...



... and to the top!!



Beauty at the top



Wow! We did it!


Do you know, if you stood here at sunrise, you would be the first folks in America to receive it's light.


The Maine View



The Steadfast Tin Soldier




Frozen toes



Rugged Beauty



So much time, so little to see ... 



Thunder hole



So hard to come home from this. God's creation is so beautiful!



My new dream home
