Swiss bliss







In the end of October, my father's mother passed away at the age of 100. I headed out to Zurich and stayed with friends in a very small village outside of Baden. They own a restored farm house and it's idyllic. What peace, tranquility and beautiful surroundings! I awoke each morning with the chill of fresh air from my bedroom window and the sound of cow bells. How Swiss! This was a first for me to see life in the late fall. The colors were yellowish brown and no red leaves in site. This is truely a beautiful country.

Minneapolis Fall Day




What a perfect day to enjoy the simple pleasures in life! The day was crisp, the sky blue, the leaves multi-color, and attitude happy. We walked Lake Harriet and skipped, ran, told stories, climbed trees and smiled. Here are a few images that capture the moment.
