We spent the weekend of October 20-21 at the park taking photos of the fall leaves. They were definitely at their peak. It was also our last weekend to camp and therefore winterized the RV and put her to sleep for the winter.

While on a business trip to California one of our customers is only 17 miles from the entrance to the park. It was an easy choice to decide to drive through the park to get to our next appointment. Of course I took some photos.
We spent Labor Day weekend at Chain o Lakes State Park near Albion, IN. The remnants of Hurricane Isaac were to come through and we were worried about a lot of rain. It didn't happen so we got some great flower photos because of the cloud cover. During a hike on the new trail 9 we came across a field of flowers with 20-30 hummingbirds darting in and out. What a sight seeing them chasing each other and stopping to observe us - as we observed them!   On a business trip to the San Francisco Bay area I had a few hour break so I spend that time with my college friend's wife, Janet Whalen at the Americas Cup preliminary races. My college buddy, Zach Cartozian had to spend time in Chicago for work. As bad luck would have it this was his only trip this year. Here are a few pictures.

We would be remiss to not mention those who we RV with. This is a shot of our great friends from the Atlanta area Gary & Gail Chittaro along with our grandson Chris taken at the lower falls in Yellowstone National Park last year. Gary and Gail also vacationed with us in Hawaii this year. We had a fantastic time sightseeing and taking 1000's of photographs. Thank goodness for digital cameras.  This is a shot from Rocky Mountain National Park last summer of our other great friends from Fort Wayne, Jack and Jenny Dunifon. They have been leading the RV lifestyle for over 30 years and we have been RV'ing with them for 7 years. Love that shirt.
