Here's a teaser image from Spencer Park in Belvidere, where the Autumn Pioneer Festival is held each year.

Spencer Park overlook


This was taken from an overlook along the route in to the festival location. As you can see, autumn color is just beginning to touch the trees, and the clouds were piled up in a most fetchingly artistic manner even though the sun was quite bright when I snapped this.

No I haven't forgotten that I promised more photos of the Illinois Railroad Museum last weekend, and in fact I have a couple dozen from the Pioneer Festival too. It's too much bandwidth to upload them all from home, and work has been too hectic. But I promise to finish uploading both this week.

We went to the orchard for apples today, then went back over to Belvidere so Gary would have a chance to tour the exhibits at the festival. Of course he spent more time chatting with people he knew than he did on actually looking at stuff, but it was OK. The weather cooperated in spite of dire predictions of rain. In fact, it's well after sunset now and still no rain has materialized.
