A walk in Austin

Last week, we went for a walk around the park in Austin. We had a bit of rain in the days before (after weeks and weeks of nothing) and the entire park had come to life....



A few hours of much needed rain brought out the blooms

A simple circle plus two benches created a magical feeling to this river overlook

Autumn is finally arriving, after the unbearable heat of summer, and the trees are offering a colorful display of gratitude


Double the beauty


The swans on the river are so elegant....this one's mate was just out of camera range, but each time I've visited, they've been within sight of one another....so sweet!


Miss Maya, Queen of the Hill, loves these hikes



As evening arrives, it's time to head back home
