Listening to wedges of high flying geese migrating south. Listening to the winds whispering in the tops of the 160 foot White Pines and watching the squirrels gathering winter food while chattering instructions to their families. Seeing the very last of the leaves falling off the oak, maple and aspen trees and walking through the fallen leaves that make up a multicolored carpet. Just relaxing and taking in all the sights, the sounds and the smells and having it so quiet at times, that all you can hear is your own heart beating.
Autumn in the northern hemisphere can be a real joy for the senses... so it is here in our back yard ( at least this part of the year. )

Pastor Gary..... What a beautiful vision and as I was reading your wonderful way of putting the description to gether , I could almost visualize what youposted and just sat here thinking ..... What a beautiful place . I would love to see that.
Yes God's nature is spectacular in the Fall as all the trees put on their coats of splendar. for their colours of red orange and yellow . Wow.!!... How could any one think for one moment that God does not exist?
Even just today , I was watching a little humming bird that had come into my back yard. That little bird facinates me with all its moves , like as little helecopter. God's Nature is perfect . And fall is without a doubt one of the most spectacular seasons. Thanks for your memories.
