Top 10 Romantic Things to Do for Autumn!

I love fall - there are so many shades and textures, a wonderful nip in the air and the sweet smell of roasted walnuts or pumpkin pies permeate. 

It seems like everyone is happier and many people forge romantic relationships during this time. There are so many holidays to share those special moments like Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years!

Take a gander at mylunakiss.com Top 10 Romantic Things to do for Autumn:

• Wine Tastings and rides to the Vineyard
• Share Hot Chocolate at a Cafe
• Sit by the fireplace and talk about your most intimate feelings
• Horseback Riding or Hiking
• Ice Skating
• A long drive in the country
• Walk on the beach (yes bring your coat if you live in the North)
• Craft and Harvest Fairs
• Cultural Events (visit a museum or go to show)
• Sunday Brunch ( you can do that anytime but it is better this time of year - remember Mimosa)

Sign Sign everywhere a sign. (Blocking out the scenery, breaking my mind ..).

SATURDAY:

We took the dogs on the Salt Lick Trail in Eagle's Nest Wilderness area.

Georgous.

Do you remember those movies from the 70's where that family gets fed up with city life and moves to the middle of nowhere to get away from The Man and all his trappings?

Yeah,  I loved those movies and fantasized about living such a life.

I am making my dream a reality right?

HAHAHAHA!!

In reality, The Man won't let you enjoy the freakin wildnerness!!!

Here are some signs from our little outing.

The Man is even trying to keep the wildlife down.

LOL!  Keep it calm Mr. Moose. You best behave in the national wilderness. Who do you think you are?? Don''t you know about 36 CFR 261? Don't make me call The Man.

SUNDAY:

Fall rituals are in full swing:

Out come the pumpkins:

Semi-Homemade Green Chili.

(Too lazy to roast the chilis this year so I cheated with these guys from the freezer section)

Semi-round tortillas.

It is all bueno. 

(Chase and I made the chili-- guess who cleaned up?)

Double dipping (on sports watching).

GO ROCKIES!!!

GO BRONCOS!!!



Did you notice the bear? 
Matt shot that bear when he was 13.   The first week after we were married and we got moved into our house, Matt's parents loaded that bear up and brought it straight over.
(I guess they were tired of that guy in their basement for 25 years).

I think he is cute.  
(And don't you know he will be sporting a Santa hat here in a couple of months).   

Hope you are having a great fall weekend.

All Guts, No Glory

Yesterday we decided to spend the last Saturday of summer fishing.

Matt calls me the "fishin' magician" because I always seem to have such good luck. Of course he has to do all the dirty work, i.e. carrying the cooler, getting my pole ready, getting my line untangled, avoiding my wild casts (that may or mat not cause him bodily injury), getting my fish off the hook, stringing the fish, gutting the fish and fetching me beers. He really does not have time to catch any himself.

The weather was perfect-- so it wast fun just hanging outside with our dogs even though we spent hours before we even got a nibble.

In fact, it was so warm that all creatures (big and small) needed to cool their tootsies.

Callie thought that a swim was in order.

Matt's only luck was catching Coor's Light cans.

I wasn't giving up though.

After all, I was wearing my lucky fishing hat.

The day was clear and we had perfect views of North Peak at Keystone.

Soon enough there will be snow and skiers on those runs.

Callie look liked she wanted to soak up as much summer as possible before the snow flies.

Finally, a fish!!

 

So my angling Sherpa got to work.

Murphy supervised, of course.

 It was almost sunset.

Time to go home.

What was on the dinner menu?

Fresh rainbow trout, of course.

THE END.
