We’ve had such a gorgeous fall here in Southeast Missouri. I thought I’d share some photos from our evening walks and bike rides. Our week of sunshine has made for some glorious colors!

Just beautiful ❤️
Thanks, Marti. It really has been an exceptional fall!
I LOVE your beautiful pics!!!
The cover is gorgeous too!
Thank you, Anna! And I should have mentioned that my talented husband designed that book cover!
Beautiful fall foliage! I already have this book but I’ll be sure to let my sister know. She’s always asking me what to read next!
Thanks so much for spreading the word, Joy!
Gorgeous pictures! Looks like you have some great places to walk. We had early freezes that killed most of the trees’ leaves that should show color…but we found one spot on Saturday where the trees must have been in a zone of not freezing. So beautiful! We were there taking photos for school and Christmas. So refreshing. Thanks for the book!
Isn’t it interesting how different areas have more color? Our backyard doesn’t have much color and most of the leaves are gone, but just up the street and in nearby towns the colors are ablaze!
Fall colors! I am in awe of the reds, oranges and yellow colors of autumn. Here in Northern Indiana we are having a beautiful fall. It’s my third fall in Indiana. Your pictures are gorgeous. Thanks for sharing. Our Creator is a magnificent painter. 👏👏❤️ My dog and I walk the neighborhood trails; she and I enjoy the walks: she sniffs and pees everywhere 😉 and I worship my Lord and Savior for His mercies that are new every morning. 🙌
Haha! I love that image of you and your dog walking in God’s creation, Donna!
I live in St. Louis and love seeing all of the beautiful trees! The weather has been wonderful for getting outside and really enjoying the Fall!
Hasn’t it been a beautiful one in Missouri, Jennifer? Thanks for posting!
I enjoyed your Fall pics! Fall is my favorite time of year. I love the colors, the crispness in the air, & the cooling of temps. Our colors weren’t quite as vivid here in SW Missouri this year, so thanks for sharing yours. 🙂
Hope your NEXT fall is bright and colorful, Lori!
Beautiful pictures!
Yes, it’s still fall in Virginia Beach – night lows of 45 and daytime highs of 72.
That’s about the same weather we’re having, Betty.
Love – LOVE – Love the photos and the wonderful colors. We got an early snow storm and cold snap in Eastern Washington and had to give our usually brilliant fall colors a pass – everything turned brown overnight. Thanks for sharing yours with us. And, by the way, the book is also free for Kindle from Amazon – thought you’d like to know. I just downloaded!!
How sad that your autumn didn’t materialize. Always so disappointing in years when that happens. (Though I will say, I’d LOVE to get a good snow this winter. Just one! 😊 It’s been so long since I’ve seen a really wonderful heavy snow!)
I’ll box mine and send it to you – we’re told we can expect a “wetter than normal” winter. 😉
Awesome post.
Thank you!
I LOVE fall photos so much. These are absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for sharing with us!
