Autumn Adventure

The other day June and I were getting a little stir crazy in our house:
 

So we decided to go on an autumn adventure to the backyard. 

First we stopped to see the spot of the river bank where the wild mink lives:

I'm sure if he knew we were taking the picture he would have posed!  Mink are such friendly fellows after all.

Then we looked at some cool leaves:
  

Then we saw a bunch of logs and stuff.  I said "we should probably clean those up somehow."  June said "babababa":
  

Then we looked at our favorite spot of grass to lay on by the Cherry Tree:
  

Then we went and looked at the spot of the river that separates us from Mrs. Bird.
  

Here's our mossy old steps:

and some blurry pumpkins on the porch:
  

I thought the dew on the clovers looked really cool:
  

and June liked this cool tree (as you can see):

I have looooooong legs:
  

So does June:
  

Next we went by the "watering-hole".  It's a place in the river where there is a waterfall and a pool at the bottom.  All the neighborhood kids play there in the Summer and gave it that nickname.
  

Here's a knotty old stump:

and a cool flower:
  

we looked at where the river comes to our house from the Park:
  

then we went inside.  Here's our backdoor doorknob:
  

and here's another doorknob just for fun:
  

then June got busy throwing all her toys:
  

and fell asleep eating dinner:
  

goodbye!
