The colors are so bright right now. Fall is my favorite time of year. The crisp cool air and the smell of autumn. Probably my last bike ride as the temperatures quickly drop. Will still be walking, though!

Rounding a corner on the bike trail with the brightly colored fall leaves visible all around us.

Biking / Walking trail at Willow Metropark. The smell of fall is in the crisp air.

Walking along a Michigan trail, I discovered this perfectly colored leaf on this bench among a sea of brittle browning leaves. It was vibrant and amazing! I picked it up to admire it.

It was PLASTIC!! ugh.

Early morning along Detroit’s Riverwalk. Quiet water, soft light, and Windsor waking up across the river.

The bear fountain at the Detroit Zoo. Probably the coolest spot to chill on a warm day.

Caught this fiery sunset at the park a while ago. The sky lit up in orange and gold before fading into dark blue. One of those calm and peaceful evenings you don’t want to end.

I’ve been there several times also. Always a relaxing and scenic hike.

The climb up Sugarloaf Mountain in Michigan's upper peninsula was worth every step. From the top, Lake Superior stretches out forever. Hard to beat this kind of Michigan view.

Outside the Mackinac Island library, these bronze kids are forever caught in story time. A fun little reminder that reading never goes out of style.

Walking through Frankenmuth at night, the Bavarian Inn feels like a castle lit from within with a touch of Christmas in the air no matter the season.

The leaves won’t stay long, but while they’re here, the whole forest feels alive with color. Each step is a reminder that autumn is both fleeting and beautiful.
Enjoy it while it lasts.

I was headed to The Pfunky Griddle for breakfast in Nashville a few years ago when I found this mural. Dolly and Willie side by side, timeless and larger than life. The city doesn’t just play music, it paints it into the streets.

Foxgloves in bloom. Beautiful, detailed, and looking like they’ve got something to say.

This Michigan metropark bike trail cut through the trees until it hit the tracks. Quiet crossing, no train in sight today.

Walking through Mackinaw City, you expect fudge shops, ferries, and souvenir stands. What you don’t expect is Bumblebee towering overhead, standing watch as if this small town on the Straits needed its own guardian.
