Wow, what a great day it’s turned out to be so far.\u00a0\u00a0 At a time of year when the weather is growing more and more dark and depressing, I was happy to wake up to a beautiful sunny day!<\/p>\n

\"Colors<\/a><\/p>\n

I took this photo (WITH MY NEW CAMERA!) while Xander and I were out with the dog this morning.\u00a0\u00a0 I think this is one of my favorites of all the fall photos I’ve taken.\u00a0 Look at those colors… green, blue, orange, yellow, red… eish!<\/p>\n

That’s one thing I love about the Netherlands.\u00a0 We still get fall with the leaves turning and everything looking really beautiful, but the grass stays green too.\u00a0 It doesn’t turn brown and die like it often does back in Canada in the fall \/ winter.<\/p>\n

Another interesting thing happened while we were out.\u00a0\u00a0 I actually got close enough to spiders and spider webs to take photos.\u00a0\u00a0 I’m scared shitless of spiders but the entire neighborhood is covered in webs from this particular kind of spider that comes out at this time of the year.\u00a0\u00a0 The sun was shining on all the webs and I had to try the camera out on them.<\/p>\n

\"Spider<\/a><\/p>\n

The coolest part was when we came across a spider in the process of spinning his web.\u00a0\u00a0 Xander swung his arms around in the area in front of it so I wouldn’t walk through any other webs.\u00a0\u00a0 Then I leaned in to try to catch the spider in the act.<\/p>\n

\"Spinning<\/a><\/p>\n

Good lord, I hate spiders… but I think their webs are pretty amazing. It was cool to watch one in the making!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
