October Leaves

Untitled Untitled Untitled Untitled Untitled Untitled Untitled Untitled Untitled

Yesterday after work I went to a nearby park to enjoy (and photograph) the last bit of sunshine left before the rainy weekend. There were a few people fishing from the dock and a kayaker out on the lake. I tried making friends with some ducks and a squirrel but they lost interest once they realized I didn't have any food. 

It definitely felt like Fall with a chill in the air and leaves on the ground. I'm obsessed with the changing of the trees' leaves and how bright and colorful they can become this time of year. I've always been fascinated by trees and think it would be neat to correctly identify any tree that I come across. Yes, I will add that to my to-do list: become a tree nerd!

Change of Heart

Untitled
These past couple months have been filled with some pretty big changes. A relationship coming to an end, a new state to call home, and learning the ropes of a new job. I've been busy adjusting to all of this, which has caused me to be quieter than usual and more introspective. These experiences have definitely taught me a lot about myself.

But I'm loving living back in the Northwest and have quickly felt at home here. Getting new Washington plates for my car is what made it all feel real for me. You can bet that my sentimental-self is saving those California ones though!
