While driving through my hometown today and capturing digital images, I was reminded of where my love for autumn began. 
This a street corner by my early childhood house. I clearly remembered the vivid colors of the trees on this street from when I was five years old. 
Growing up the grocery store always let us know when Halloween was coming.
Now the hills are covered with new growth since the smelter has closed. I loved the mix of foliage and the blend of fall colors from this view. 
The mix of plants, flowers, and trees in my Mom's backyard is another example of autumn brilliance. I love to be reminded of how beautiful autumn can be. Happy Saturday.

I don't think I have been back to my high school homecoming for at least twenty-five years. A perfect time to return to Teeter's Field in Kellogg, Idaho for the annual event is when your niece is running for homecoming queen. The football game was between the Kellogg Wildcats and the St. Maries Lumberjacks. 
Before the game the family got warmed up with Mom's homemade chili . We bundled up and headed to the game, thankful the rain had subsided. We were relieved there is now grass turf. Back in the day it would have been a messy mud fest .
