Fall is in the air..

Taken on a hike through the woods at Cox Arboreteum.


Brain fruit (Osage-orange or hedge apple ) are very prominent in Ohio although they are native to Texas and Oklahoma. I have read that they aren't good to eat but they do deter many bugs including spiders!


I took a wrong turn and got a little of the beaten track and ended up in someone's side yard. I think the legs are a nice touch eh?

Fall Leaf Pile

Somewhere in that pile is the fire Hydrant. Of course that night a big wind came in and blew the leaves back on their yard... oops?

Quack, Quack, Squirrel

A Snake!

Found in my garage. Luckily my friend 'saved' me from him. Honestly he was so small but when I would zoom in to get a picture he would lunge at me and I would jump. I felt so silly for being jumpy around such a little guy.
