This week I have been working on hand quilting, so that will take awhile. I have a box of projects that I made, but never finished, so I took two out and finished them. I made them into little pillows and added a yarn edge. The fox will be a Christmas present to a friend. I have a lot of finished pieces, so I may need to do a craft sale someday.
Last weekend I was still recovering, so we did a few rides to get out, and then rain. Today I was ready to get out for a bit and wanted to get some apples before they ran out. It was not too crowded, so a good day to go. I got a large bag and a smaller one for the kids.
We took the scenic back roads home and made a few stops. One is a pond with an old sawmill. With the drought, they have not been able to open for visits, since the falls are not flowing. It is a nice spot to stop and walk around the pond.
There were a few Mallards enjoying the pond and this couple had a friend, sharing their log.
We drove by the farms.
And a stop at another pond. Lots of colors popping in Connecticut, but a lot of areas have narrow roads and no place to pull over, so I couldn't get shots in a lot of areas. Hopefully tomorrow I will be up to a bike ride or a walk, to catch more foliage.
I hope everyone had a good week and can enjoy the fall weather in your area.

Your picture with the ducks and turtle on a log is just great! How lucky to be there at the right time to see that! Thank you for sharing your adventures. There is always something wonderful to see if we would just stop to look around us! 💕
I think we are passing our peak of color here....so dry and so much wind wreaked havoc with what there was. I had hoped to make it to the apple orchard/pumpkin patch with my grand (and son/DIL) but between their schedules and mind, it is not looking likely. :-(
