Walked to work- some photos from our neighborhood's rendering of Fall... 

Being able to walk into town from our little neighborhood brings me such joy.  Trampling through these leaves, looking at how secluded we are down in the valley, seeing my neighbors offering their tiny libraries, hearing trains and traffic passing overhead on the bridges and byways. 

Additionally, then I get to walk home, and it's quiet and a time of transition- preparing me slowly for the next part of the day.  

Clem and I loaded up in the car for a quick run to Trader Joe's for last minute stuff before her uncle comes to visit for the weekend.  Then, we continued on to the Spokane International Airport (we are only 70 miles south of the Canadian border!) and went to meet uncle's plane.  We parked in what they call the "cell phone waiting lot"- first time using one and I love it!

These pics are a bit excessive, but show you what fun we had while waiting.
