More Fall Colors ~ Indian Mill

The leaves are at peak color in Northwest Ohio this week. I love autumn and can't get enough of it! I hope to get out and about later in the week. In the meantime, here's some of the color I've captured at the Indian Mill in Wyandot County, Ohio on the Sandusky River. This structure was built in 1861 to replace the original one-story building the U.S. government built in 1820 for the Wyandot Indians.

For history buffs (like me), you may enjoy seeing this old millstone located on the grounds, used by the Native Americans to grind corn prior to the mill being built.

More fall color around the area...

I hope you've enjoyed my autumn photos...

 Have a wonderful week!

"Be yourself. The world worships the original."

Ingrid Bergman

"I've always admitted that I'm ruled by my passions."

Elizabeth Taylor

"...the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows. The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years."

Audrey Hepburn

“I avoid looking back. I prefer good memories to regrets.”

Grace Kelly

“Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring. We are all of us stars, and we deserve to twinkle.”   

Marilyn Monroe 

"After all these years, I am still involved in the process of self-discovery. It's better to explore life and make mistakes than to play it safe. Mistakes are part of the dues one pays for a full life."

Sophia Loren

"A woman has to be intelligent, have charm, a sense of humor and be kind. It's the same qualities I require from a man."

Catherine Deneuve

Savouring Autumn ~

Autumn is my favorite season...well, that is until spring arrives and then that's my favorite season! Actually, I enjoy all the different seasons ~ I've even learned to appreciate winter's stark beauty. But, after the slow, humid days of summer and before the harsh, frozen months of winter, the rich colors and pungent smells of autumn are heady at times. Nap taking, chili making, pie baking rainy days followed by Indian summer's sunshine and crisp nights. If only I could make autumn last a little longer...

October is a symphony of permanence and change.

How beautifully leaves grow old. How full of light and color are their last days.

 A woodland in full color is awesome as a forest fire, in magnitude at least, but a single tree is like a dancing tongue of flame to warm the heart.
~Hal Borland~

 Until next time, savor Autumn!
