#L&SR’s Weekly Blogging Challenge – Autumn
Welcome to #L&SR’s Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge September 23, 2020, Favorite things to do in the autumn. Oh this is easy peezy! Please have a seat, grab an iced tea or lemonade out of the cooler. Be sure and try a chocolate chip or peanut butter cookie.
Wow so many to choose from, but I’ll list a few things at the top of my list.
Leaf Peeping. In Colorado the Aspen leaves turn from green to golden, red, orange and several shades in between. Absolutely breathtaking! This picture was taken above Cripple Creek, Colorado.
Hiking Mountain Trails. The foliage is so beautiful, the morning air is crisp and clean. I love the rustle of leaves as you walk through them. Bear Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park above Estes Park, Colorado is a favorite hike, as are several trails in RMNP and Mueller State Park above Divide, Colorado.
Autumn Camping is the best! You get up to crisp even frosty mornings fabulous for hiking. The air smells so fresh. There are lots of wildlife to be seen. They don’t like the hot weather much better than I do. Sitting in a camp chair with a mug of hot chocolate with little marshmallows watching the sunrise or set is one of life’s best little pleasures. The serenity is unsurpassed.
Celebrating Halloween! My favorite holiday. We share pumpkin carving duties with our Eclectus parrot. Taco loves carving, chewing, eating and mucking around in the pumpkin. Afterwards a bath is always required. LOL
Well, there are a few of my favorite things to do in the autumn. How about you? What are your favorite things do do in autumn? Please list them in the comments!

A sneak peek at Hidden Gypsy Magic:
Discover the consequences of awakening hidden Gypsy magic!
The Salem Wildlife Sanctuary is Gwen Taylor’s life work. Her Irish Gypsy heritage provides a hidden talent she uses to help the creatures under her care. But even her magical skills can’t help new rescues in dire need of veterinary care.
The opportunity of signing on as the vet for Gwen’s sanctuary dropped into Brock Scutter’s lap after he expanded his practice to include wildlife. The personal attraction he and Gwen experience is undeniable the more their professional and personal lives collide.
Touring the only “non-haunted” house in Salem they both feel a spark of magic. A trip to his family’s cabin uncovers a heritage he didn’t know existed. If they want a future together, it means facing the consequences of awakening hidden Gypsy magic and a race against the clock to correct past wrongs.

Anyway next week’s blogging challenge topic is favorite things to do in the autumn. That will be easy. Autumn is my favorite time of year! Love Halloween! Until then have fun, stay safe, and never let the world get you down!

Thankyou Mary for stopping by. Fall colors make beautiful pictures. LOL
We love camping in the fall also. My late mom used to love looking at the autumn colors of the leaves, but from inside of a nice, warm house. She never understood why I love camping so much. I tried to explain the Japanese concept of “shinrin yoku”, forest bathing, but to no avail. I joke that her idea of “roughing it” was staying at a hotel that only had an outdoor pool. To each their own.
My late mom also loved to look at the fall colors. But she liked to do it from a nice warm safe vehicle. She never understood the pull of camping. LOL Thanks for stopping by Fiona!
Hiking and camping are great this time of year. https://pmprescott.blogspot.com/2020/09/wc-092320.html
Patrick Thanks for stopping by! We are of a same mind.
Sounds like fun. Wish we could get in some autumn camping, but it’s too hectic for us. I miss it, though.
Oh yes, Hectic is the word around here too. Thanks for popping in Megan!
