New England 2018

This year I planned my New England business trip one week later than the previous year in hopes of better foliage.  Well, it didn't quite work out the way I planned.  There were torrential downpours in Maine, gray cloudy skies in New Hampshire, Connecticut, and Rhode Island with intermittent rain showers, and cold, blustery temperatures.  I thought for sure all of my photos would be shit.  So I was pleasantly surprised to have a few decent ones to share with you all. I hope you enjoy my Fall Foliage.

Somewhere in Maine

I was in so many states I honestly don't remember which state this was!



I will take any of these homes!

I believe this was near Rye, NH

Or any of these homes!




Even though the temps were cold, there were monarch butterflies everywhere!

I can't help but think of Henry David Thoreau when I'm in this part of the country so I will leave you with two of his quotes:

"This world is but a canvas to our imagination."

"Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?"
