Sunday - October 19

We were off hiking after breakfast - another nice day in the woods.    Had just a little sunshine and then all gone!     We stopped back at the lodge and then went to the visitor's center (in all our visits to Starved Rock, had never been here).    Several exhibits to look at and we watched a 15-minute very interesting movie on how Starved Rock came to be, got its name, etc.
 
Back on Daisy for another caramel apple and other treats.   Grandpa played Blitz with the boys and then we were off for home....of course, along the way, the sun came out and stayed that way all the way!    We had so much fun......just a beautiful place to hang out in God's glorious beauty!
 
Here are a few scenic pics...mainly yellows and golds this fall with a few oranges and reds
here and there~

 


 

 

 
And last, but not least.....Grandpa and the boys
 
We got home around 2:30 after a stop at Barnes & Noble with the boys picking out some new books.    Did some laundry and got our suitcases out - I'm off to Phoenix (girlfriend trip) on Wednesday and Mark is going to Baltimore and then onto Oxford and work on the boat for a few days.
