Cromwell Valley County Park

I am linking up with Skywatch Friday  and Good Fences
I hope you can join in on the fun and share your fence scenes and pretty skies.

I am sharing some of the photos I took while hiking in the Cromwell Valley Park with my hubby on Oct 23rd. The sky was beautiful and it was a warmer fall day. I am also sharing a moon shot and sunset shot from the evening before.


A different moon shot then the kind I usually share, this moon has some clouds floating in front and the sky is not as dark as usual.


Eastern Bluebirds posing nicely on the fences. I am always happy to find the birds perching on the fences,  perfect timing for us to be walking past.



Some of the pretty Autumn trees at Cromwell Valley County Park and a couple of Chipping Sparrows.


Autumn trees and the towers in the sky.


Seen during our loop trail walk the barn and farmland at the park.


A pretty blue sky, some of the fenced garden area and more pretty Autumn trees at Cromwell Valley Park.


Back at home the sunset looking west from my deck and backyard. I hope you enjoyed my post and images. Thanks for stopping by for a visit and for your nice comments. Have a happy day and weekend ahead.

To see more pretty skies from around the world please visit  Skywatch Friday
and check for more fence shots at Tex's Good Fences

Thanks to Theresa @ The Run*A*Round Ranch for hosting Good Fences and thanks to Sylvia, Yogi  and Sandy for hosting Skywatch Friday.    I wish everyone a happy day and weekend ahead..

Beautiful photos Eileen. Love the birds on the fence. The skies are gorgeous too and what a nice backdrop to the gorgeous fall colors in the trees. We just don't see much of that here and I miss it from growing up in Michigan.

Hi Eileen, Very nice selection of photos ... perfect fits for the memes. By the way, I love all things about radio, so the photo with the towers looks especially nice to me! Have a great day! (Yes, I know the towers could be TV, but I will think of them for radio!)

Love your moon, Eileen.

I was driving (moving, even!) from Columbus, Ohio to Berkeley Springs the other night. There was a half moon hanging in the sky so low that it looked like a huge sign for a hotel or something (except it continued for mile after mile).
