Thanksgiving day pictures.

And, of course, what day would be complete without more pictures? (Hey, I referenced taking them. Of course I'm going to show off the ones that worked. I'd say I'd show off the ones that worked and don't involve family, but most of those didn't come out. Go figure. *sigh* But at any rate, here's my favorites from the non-people ones.)

Driving down, this barn caught my eye, because it looks nice and old and weathered. Imagine my surprise when I noticed a detail I hadn't actually seen at the time, in the photograph! It makes the barn a little more intriguing, if anything.

A bit later we crossed over this bridge. Yes, the bridgework in the foreground is a bit blurry. This is probably the worst of the photos I am showing off, but it's a very pretty river. It would be neat to get a photo of it from walking along the bridge on the sidewalk where I could pause and set it up properly.

Then we turned onto the little side road recommended by the map service. I don't have good pictures of the dirt-and-gravel part (it was actually not as picturesque scenery wise), but these pictures were taken along the length of it and are a good showing of why I am not at all sorry we drove it:

Then we got out to his aunt and uncle's house. These pictures are taken during the hike we all took after Thanksgiving dinner, over the lovely property they/the camp own/maintain:

Trees in forest     Sunlight through trees/over water     Creek in forest
Sun-washed bare tree     Creek (from bridge)     More creek from bridge

And, finally, from the drive home, a picture of grass in the sunset that I really liked:

These are so gorgeous! Makes me miss living out in the country.

My favourite photo is the one with the sunlight filtering through the trees.

Would that be the star outline? If so, I suspect it's someone's Christmas lights all ready to go. Might even be on now if you went by at night.
