Amazing Adventure- Celebrating Fall in Oakville

We took some time a few weeks ago to go out and enjoy the leaves. Enjoy the leaves? How do you do that, you might ask?

Well, in Oakville, you need to enjoy the OAK leaves... get it????

Some leaves are still on the trees in front of these beautiful historical homes.

Some leaves are at the foot of the pillar in front of the Oakville Museum, next to the pretty mums.

No leaves here, but look at this old building! Banks sure looked different back in 1856.

Look a these gorgeous fire red leaves on the tree next to my parents home.

Here we see them on a tree next to the lake.

... and here we see them on the ground, still beautifully colourful!

Just grandiose, don't you think? Look at that blanket of leaves...

Melanie couldn't resist playing in the leaves.... Action shot!

Turning to the west, we are at the Navy Street Pier and lighthouse.

Looking off into the 'clouds'.

This is my beautiful daughter. I love this picture, it's actually my current desktop photo.

It was cold and windy, but the seagulls didn't mind.

Melanie pointing to the obvious...

I, on the other hand, am posing 'between' the obvious signage.

Safety first...

...but I don't care, I am the King of the World!

... and Mella, well she just hops around the rocks... kids, don't try this at home!

Some of the flowers and strange prickly things were still out in full force.

Some of them turned bright red and hot like fire.... can you believe the colour???

Melanie among the rock formations and flowers. Let's return for your wedding photos, ok, Mella?

... and this, I have never seen. Black leaves with black and dark red berries... wow, nature is fantastic.

Even more bright reds... and white- in honour of Canada I am sure!

Another, pretty historic home. This one was the captain's home, built in 1833. So our adventure was filled with beauty and a side of history. Thank you Oakville!
