{It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood...everyday}

Right around the corner from our house is a river. There are many lovely houses that have the view of the river outside their back door. I drive by this a few times a day. And my favorite time to drive by is in the morning when the water is perfectly still and the light is beautiful from the morning sun. I have been wanting to take a picture of it for weeks and i finally did it this morning on the way to Gavin's school. Pretty, huh?...

Now, this is about the only pretty area of Texas during fall. Texas isn't anything like Cleveland in the fall. In cleveland we had WONDERFUL bright yellows, reds, oranges. They were bright. Here we have those colors but they are extremely dull and brownish versions of those colors. I could sit by this water all day long. The fall here is wonderful. The weather has been in the low 80's, which doesn't feel hot at all. It feels like the low 70's when it's in the low 80's. The evenings are in the 50's. It's wonderful. I really like it here. It just needs to be bigger with more things to do and then i might want to stay.
