Fall Colors in West Virginia
My favorite boy toy and myself are off chasing the fall colors. I had a different topic in mind for today’s post, but my staff wants to see pictures. So here’s a slide show of yesterday’s highlights, straight from the camera.
There’s snow up here, although it’s melting quickly. The colors are pretty, but we haven’t yet found many places to take pictures from. Since never been here before, it’s a learning curve of driving around, getting lost, and asking questions.
By the way, today is a favorite anniversary of mine – Reformation Day. For a modern English translation of Martin Luther’s objections to the Catholic teachings in 1517, click here. Charisma Magazine had a recent article on the need for reformation within today’s church that is worth reading. Don’t stop reading because it talks about reform in the charismatic churches – this article has application to all religions.
Word for tomorrow – BLOGGER’S CHOICE. If you prefer to work ahead, see the list for the week under “A Word A Day”.

This looks like a great place.
It is. I’ll write more about it later, but if you ever visit here, Laurel Lodge is the place to stay.
Enjoy your road trip. I loved the picture of that long porch you posted.
Thanks! That porch is really cool, although our host warned us to not lean on it due to its age.
Are you trying to make me homesick with those fall photos from W.Va.? The leaves are beautiful up there this year. Thanks for your comment on my poem on Christine’s blog, I’m glad I found yours. Maybe I’ll try the word/photo challenge from time to time, so I signed up! Great job on your post-a-day goal!
Aren’t those colors just great? It makes me miss the Midwest. Thanks for visiting – I hope you do try the daily words from time to time. Each week I look at the list and think “I can’t do this another week!” and each week, my creativity expands to do the job. I’ve had a number of good posts around the words.
Christine had a number of good poems on there – I think she will be pleased with the results.

Christine Young had a poetry challenge http://christinemyoung.wordpress.com/2011/10/30/your-turn/. Visit it to see how several of us took her photos and made poems.
