Stop by SCENIC SUNDAY or check out SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY But only if you like great photos.
All those shadows made things a little confusing. Beautiful sunny day in Lancaster,Ohio,making it a great time to be outside.
( A VISIT TO ACADIA NATIONAL PARK AND THE STATE OF MAINE)
I stretch in a long- long line along the margins of the day.
To blind the sun from sea and bay
Not a bird, plane,or tree. Just a cloud hanging from the sky along the margins of the day.
If you like water and things that are wet stop by WATERY WEDNESDAY
I FEEL A MOMENT OF SILENCE AND A PRAYER IS APPROPRIATE.

ENJOY THE DAY-BE GRATEFUL-THANKS FOR STOPPING BY.
Carve your name on the wall of a sandstone gorge and have the gorge named after you. That is what happened to W.J. Conkle
Conkle's Hollow is situated off S.R. 374 on Big Pine Road in the Hocking Hills area of S.E, Ohio.
The photos above are taken from the “Rim Trail” which is on top of the cliffs and circles the gorge. Vertical cliffs that rise over 200 feet and 300 feet from cliff to cliff. I would not recommend this trail for young children for one must use extreme caution when hiking this area. For a trail map CLICK.
Have I ever mentioned how fortunate I am to have such a great “hiking partner.” One winter while hiking the rim trail my “hiking partner” slipped and fell in the snow. I grabbed the hood of her coat and saved the day. (what a guy)
Top left photo looks down into the gorge from the rim trail. Bottom left shows the length of the gorge. The bottom two photos shows the “picnic area” where we finished the hike with picnic lunch. Fall in Ohio sure can be beautiful.
Autumn days are here again!
In autumn when the trees are brown
The little leaves come tumbling down
They do not make the slightest sound
But lie so quietly on the ground
Until the wind comes puffing by
And blows them off towards the sky.
The winds will blow their own freshness into you,
and the storms their energy,
while cares will drop away from you
like the leaves of Autumn.
Fall poem by John Muir
I was checking out several of my favorite blogs this morning and it seemed everyone had photos of flowers
OR BIRDS. Then Linda said she wanted to go shopping so:
I was feeling a little lost having missed my “group therapy” class then:
We went to another store and I felt right at home.
“But the flower leaned aside
And thought of naught to say,
And morning found the breeze
A hundred miles away.” Robert Frost
Don’t every call me “Late for Dinner.”
“Dinner after dinner, as the weather changed
we enjoyed, were warmed, comforted
by staples, meals we love.” Comfort Food by Raymond A. Foss
A FEW PHOTOS FROM FORT MYERS BEACH (THE BEACH) A SCENIC SUNDAY POST.
Sandcastle
Author Unknown
From the beach its sandy walls rise,
Its turrets reach up to touch the skies.
A tiny moat dissolves the keep.
Its pavers are strong, though only two inches deep.
Tiny footprints embedded in the sand,
Where once a child there did stand.
Its grace and beauty a short time will last,
Before the sea washes it into the past.
