The sunrise glows behind the De Soto Church
|

What a glorious start to the day!
|

Along highway 169 on the way to Adel
|

The sun colors the entire eastern sky
|

A river snakes its way through Marion County
|

An abandoned bridge guards the river
|

A quiet fall scene
|

The river reflects the trees along Highway 5
|

A fallen tree near the river
|

The November full moon
|

Lisa Marie explores a river south of Winterset
|

Lisa Marie and Priscilla explore the sand bar
|

Lisa wades into the shallow water
|

Priscilla stays nearby
|

Lisa moves closer - am I being herded?
|

The girls pick up a scent to explore
|

Time to explore!
|

Priscilla returns to the bank
|

Lisa Marie climbs up from the river
|

Priscilla dries off near the rocky bank
|

Is it time to go to the car?
|

We went to the Clark Tower to enjoy the scenery
|

|

The tower keeps silent watch over the valley
|

The windows look in...
|

and out over the ridge
|

Lisa Marie and Priscilla know a Kodak moment!
|

The girls watch the activity by the tower
|

Ahh-oooh! Priscilla looks like she's howling, but she's really just
looking around
|

The windows on the second story offer a different perspective of the
scenery
|

The view from the top of the tower
|

Many leaves have already fallen
|

Later, we take all three girls to the quarry
|

Lisa Marie and Gracie enjoy the water
|

Lisa spends a quiet moment alone
|

Then all the girls romp!
|

Come on! Let's play!
|

The girls hear some rustling
|

A few geese take flight
|

Lots of wildlife captures Prissy's attention
|

Lisa Marie watches for the other girls
|

The plants are preparing for the winter
|

|
|

Priscilla wants someone to run with her
|

Gracie leaps into action!
|

Lisa dares someone to come into the pond
|

Gracie gets a drink
|

Gracie bounds to the bank
|

The clouds look like popcorn in the morning sky
|

The different cloud layers grab the sun's colors
|

The glow intensifies along the sky south of Adel
|

A different angle shows clouds layered across the sky
|

The spruce tree waits for the dawn
|

The corn reaches up to grab the sunrise
|

It must be a sign of fall!
