Last Saturday we went for a drive looking for fall foliage. We didn't find a lot of color, but did find some beautiful skies and reflections. The lake is in Cunningham Falls State Park and the sunset was taken near our house. More pictures of the lake are on Marianne's blog and my original blog.
Our two cats are not hunters! Buster perfers to stretch out with Maxine, while Zoey naps in a dining room chair.
Wires were buried in most of the historic section of Frederick City years ago. Since the 1970's electric, phone, TV and Internet wiring in new housing developments was put underground. But there are a lot of places where wiring still hangs on poles. The first four shots were taken back in September on the same day as the ones in my last SWF. The sunset below was shot last Sunday.
The Monocacy river winds its way through Frederick County from Pennsylvania in the north to the Potomac River in the south, with many bridges along its path. The steel truss bridge above is one that I crossed almost daily for 25 years until I retired last year. It is the main crossing of the Monocacy River for the communities to the northeast of the city. About 10 years ago, the road was widened to four lanes and a new concrete span was built for eastbound traffic. For a much older bridge over the Monocacy, see my Legore Bridge post.
As the blooming season ends, flowers normally take on a forlorn look. But the hibiscus actually looks down right sad with the first cool weather. For a cheerful hibiscus, take a peek a Quilly's post.
The lazy, hazy days of summer have departed, leaving us with cooler temperatures, some rain and beautiful skies. Here are some samples of Frederick skies during the week. For other weather-related views, visit my Lew's Pics posts of Tuesday and Wednesday.
