We were in NE Iowa this past weekend, and saw sites like this!
This photo was taken Thursday, as the skies were beginning to become overcast.
Do you see the brightly-colored falling leaf??
The next 4 photos were taken at variou spots on a trail
at Pike's Peak. MY it was cold!!!
(This is Bridal Veil Falls.)
Photos from a trail at Effigy Mounds.
Do you see the mounds below?
Perhaps 6th graders? on a field trip to Effigy Mounds.
Now... out my window today...
No sunshine, but Look At the Color!!
And THIS is what it looked like this morning! It was still raining, and the leaves
were WET! (Something that has rarely happened this year.)
When we arrived home Saturday evening, we'd received 3 1/4" of rain.
We left the gauge alone, and by noon the gauge read 5 (Five!) inches of rainfall!
An answer to prayer
and a dream come true!
