Searching For Autumn

Autumn has been a no show around the Jersey Shore.
Until just recently, there has been almost no color in the trees.
We've been looking...
drives in the car in search of falls beautiful colors, have turned up empty.

On October 15th, we found a little color in Colts Neck...




and we found some really beautiful, well cared for horses as well.





Monday,
 we found these pretty trees in Spring Lake while riding the bikes.


We also found more scarecrows in town, 
I thought these were really well done.










Our last stop was to ride the bikes up to the beach to see the ocean,
yep, it's still there looking as lovely as always.

Happy Halloween!

The colours of autumn may have been delayed a little, but they were vibrant and beautiful when they arrived,

Hello, Debbie! Looks like a beautiful day to be out watching the ocean, looking at the fall colors and decorations. The scarecrows are cute. Love the pretty and colorful trees. Happy Halloween, enjoy your day!

Just look at all those gorgeous colours of the trees. All those scarecrows are fabulously creative. How nice to hop on your bikes and pedal to the ocean and enjoy all that beauty.

The trees in Spring lake are beautiful!! Loved the scarecrows think they were even better than the ones before and just can't go wrong with a picture of the ocean.

Looks like you had a fabulous day out riding your bikes!! Love the second scarecrow, guess I like the old fashion kind, I am going to try and make my own next year, well that is if we aren't gone a long time like this year. great way to end the day at the water!

I love those beautiful coloured trees and the horses look fantastic, but I must say that last shot of the ocean is a winner for me.

Beautiful trees! I like those kinds of colors. Beautiful horses, too. We need scarecrows like those here!

What a fabulous selection of photographs.
The scarecrows were all great, they seem to be getting more and more popular.

All the best Jan
