Yay Fall is here!

Brandon overlooking Boulder Our first attempt with the tripod & timer... Our 2nd attempt with the tripod & timer... Our boys sitting on big rocks One of the bucks we saw Tyson & Ryan by a big tree All of us! We've had a few boring weeks. I LOVE the fall! I really wanted to see all the colorful trees. So we pulled up the map and found an area called Boulder Mountain Park. It is about an hour and a half away. (I miss the 20 minute drive in Utah) We decided to take our drive up there since we haven't ever gone there. So it was a great place to see but for the life of me I never would have thought there wouldn't be any aspens up there. There were a few but for the most part it was all Pine. There were a couple great over looks and awesome rock areas. It was still beautiful, just not what I was expecting I guess. We came across two buck deer as we were driving, they so just stood there. I felt like I almost could reach out and touch them they were so close. The other day I figured out that my video camera tripod fit my digital camera. So I thought great we can set that up and use the timer to get some nice family pictures with all the pretty trees. Well, it only took me three tries to get the timer figured out. I got a couple good pictures, I need more practice that is for sure. All in all it was a great time, got a little rain but not too bad til we got home and it was down pour. Oh and we left all the windows in our house open. Floors were all wet!
