A Walk in the Sunshine
Sunday afternoon, my hip, knee and back all cooperating, I collected my husband from his yard work, and we went down into the Kent Valley for a walk along the Green River.
First we stopped to walk around the Old Fishing Hole.
A turtle was enjoying the sun too.
Then we followed an old country road along the Green River.
Unfortunately, before we got to the bridge to cross over, we had to walk along a huge scarified area that will soon be another development. I didn't photograph that. I only wanted pretty pictures.
On the other side of the river, we followed the walking path along the golf course.
We caught glimpses of Mt Rainier. Unfortunately, here again, development will soon obscure this view.
Back over the river, we completed about 2.25 miles, mostly slow and easy, enjoying the sun and the color and the quiet.

I love your pictures, showing beautiful fall colors and blue, blue sky! Glad to know you had such a nice walk. :-)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! How sad that development will obscure the view soon. We have that happening in Honolulu with taller and taller skyscrapers taking away our views of ocean and mountain in certain areas. I do tend to like growth and change but not when it becomes invasive to peace and beauty.
ReplyDeleteIt really looks like a beautiful fall day. The blue of the sky -- amazing.
ReplyDeleteYou photos are wonderful, I love the glow of the yellow leaves, and that path with golden leaves on it. Too bad the view of Mount Rainier will be obscured soon.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the pictures and the walk along that pretty river.
ReplyDeleteIsn't the sunshine just lovely these afternoons!!
That was a good time for a walk. You have to get outdoors and walk to really enjoy fall colors.
ReplyDeleteWow! The light in these photos are just spectacular. Thank you so much for sharing these fall colors. I’m loving each one.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures. The old fishing hole is especially lovely with reflections of bright autumn colors. Yikes, more development?
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear that your joints were feeling good enough for you to get such a nice walk in.
ReplyDeleteThese pictures are wonderful. That was such a pretty walk. Glad your back and hip pain was better. Shelby and I walked a lot at the Fair yesterday and my hip was bothering me, which scares me. Couldn't help but think about you and hoping you were feeling better.
ReplyDeleteSeems like you are going to have some splendid color this fall. That fishing hole looks like a great place to sit and ponder.
ReplyDeletelove seeing the fall colors-it's gorgeous
ReplyDeleteDang the so-called progress. You got a lot of beautiful pictures. We have been blessed with such wonderful Fall weather---I cannot complain. Lovely walk
