Sophia and I took Daphne to a nearby park on Sunday. The park has hiking trails that follow a river that flows into Lake Superior. We enjoyed seeing the change of colors in some of the plants and shrubs. There were primarily pine trees along the trails and not many leaf trees so we didn’t see as much color as we thought we would. It was still a beautiful walk on one of the last days of summer.
Daphne is nearly 10 years old, but she still knows how to play like a puppy. She loves playing fetch and tug-o-war. Sophia wanted to see how far Daphne could jump when leaping off the deck to fetch her ball. I think we were all impressed with her height and distance.
It’s not often that we see Sebastian in a shirt tie. He was all dressed up to attend an end-of-the season caddie banquet at the local country club.
Most of my plants are done for the season including the garden vegetables and flowers. The deer have finished off anything that had remained except for a few blossoms on the hosta plants and one lonely rose.
The fall colors are beginning to show up on maple trees throughout the city. I’m looking forward to capturing some of those changing hues in the weeks ahead.
The location may have changed slightly for 2014, but we were able to get the Sullivan cousins to sit still long enough to take our annual dock photo. It’s been fun watching them grow each year. They have a great time whenever they are together. I hope it stays this way for another 90 years or so.
