Mason Mill Park

Whoops. Where has this month gone? Sorry to all five of my readers for the lack of posts lately. Here are some pictures from a recent fall leaf viewing trip to nearby Mason Mill Park. They have a wonderful trail that goes through the ruins of the old Decatur Waterworks and it's a cool place for graffiti art viewing, exploring and pictures. Part of the trail goes over a train track and we got lucky that day and got to see a train go right underneath us! The leaves were wonderfully picturesque for a couple of weeks ... we couldn't get enough of them!

We've been moving full steam ahead to Christmas. Shelby seems to really "get" it this year. We've already visited our mall Santa twice... she just wants to go up and talk to him! It's so cute. He really is a good mall Santa - very engaging and sweet. And our mall isn't a very busy one so there is never a line! I think we will be making many more visits between now and Christmas! We have some time off next week for Thanksgiving and I am looking forward to spending some time with my family.
