A Day At The Park

On Saturday Claire and I decided to go for a walk in a nearby park, Karts Farm Park. It is a popular disc golf spot here in Bloomington but is best known for its soccer fields. I would guess that there are close 10 fields in all. It is about a mile from our place and each Saturday it is loaded down with kids off all ages playing soccer. We decided to take the tail less traveled. Along our way we came to a patch of area that was covered with flowers. We took our time walking through, looking, smelling, and taking pictures. Here are a few pictures that I took while we were there.

It was a very nice fall day to be outside. We are both loving the cooler weather. We both remember last year not getting to experience a fall season or any of the fall treats that come along with it. That must be why we have been to the local orchard twice already this year, have gone through a few gallons of apple cider, countless bushels of apples, a couple pumpkin pies, a few batches of applesauce, and tried a couple different recipes involving acorn squash. What can I say, just making up for lost times. We have also recently discovered our winter wardrobe again. After wearing our summer gear for about two years now, it is nice to put on a light jacket or a sweater and mix it up a little.
