Outdoors At Blue Creek Home

Fall is my absolute favorite season. Here are a few photographs around Blue Creek Home plus a few “on the road” photographs.

Our leaves haven’t turned much yet. It won’t be much longer though!!!

 

 

 

G-Man is responsible for this wonderful outdoor “fallscape”. He knew that I wanted to use a bundle of cornstalks tied with orange ribbon. Low and behold, he came home the next day with the cornstalks, a bale of hay , pumpkins, and gourds. What a guy!! I do love him so.

You get a glimpse of the lake in the upper right of the photo.

 

 

 

We have had this wooden wheel barrow for years and still lovin’ it. It has acquired a great patina.

Don’t  you love these gray gourds? I do!

 

 

 

While we were putting the outdoor decorations out, we ran into this little guy. I hate spiders, but this one is just so….yellow! It almost looks like a tick to me!! Does anyone know what kind it is? You can have him!!!

 

 

 

This guy is sitting high up on the courtyard wall.

 

 

 

I am crazy for fall!!

 

 

 

Have I ever mentioned that we have boulders? Some were badly scraped by the bulldozer pushing them around. If we started digging anywhere, we would unearth lots more.

 

 

 

We had these stacked. It’s the perfect spot to rest.

 

 

 

There is a great big one here…

 

 

 

And lots lining the driveway…

 

 

 

And did I mention that we have lots of boulders????? I love every single one of them, too!

 

 

 

I took this photograph in Alexander City. Don’t you love the railroad track in the foreground and the old concrete fence in the background? Dogwoods are the first trees to start showing their beautiful fall colors here in the South. You wouldn’t believe the huge house nestled behind all those trees. It looks like Tara!

 

 

 

Last week, we took a little road trip. This mural is in downtown Sylacauga. I don’t know who the artist was, but it was very well executed. I’m betting a few heads have been bumped trying to get to that lake!

 

 

Hey, it’s time for “Outdoor Wednesday” with Susan @ “A Southern Daydreamer”.

I hope you enjoyed these early fall photographs. I had loads of fun writing and photographing for this post.
