Thanks to everyone who welcomed me back from a 10 day holiday. Each message brought a smile to my face and it makes me so happy to be a part of the SparkPeople family. Here are some photos I took while we were away. The autumn colors were a lot more intense than the photos show but to my amazment, there were very few orange and red leaves this year.

No, that isn't snow on the grass but it was a very heavy frost that coated everything until the sun took over

We drove through heavy fog on the way to the cottage

But it didn't take long and by the time we arrived, we were able to enjoy a beautiful day that reached almost 80 degrees

As I mentioned, there weren't many reds and oranges but I did find this one

This photo was taken on Sunday Oct. 9th and it was well over 80 degrees - fabulous day for October
