The Last Foliage Post...

The weather has turned! The winds have picked up, and they're blowing the leaves from the trees now. I was able to take one more walk to take some last pictures for you. I'm glad that you all are enjoying the fall foliage with me! It's amazing, isn't it? So here you go. A few more to get you through winter!










Look at the colors of the leaves on the ground!

Brilliant Foliage!

The pictures speak for themselves! (And I'll add a couple captions, just for fun...) Enjoy!














My favorite tree with its first blush of fall...

My new yellow swampers (sitting under my tree)








Check out the marble this tree has grown around!

A gorgeous view straight up!

crunch, crunch, crunch...











 There was no retouching of any of these photographs... it's just simply stunning in Bethlehem right now. I am very much enjoying this TRUE change of seasons! Who wouldn't?

Pennsylvania Treasure Hunt

Today I drove with a friend to an antique store we'd seen in passing, on our way to and from Hawk Mountain. We've wanted to return to this store ever since we saw it two weeks ago. It was completely worth the trip!

It's called Figaro's Vintage, and it's been there for 6 years. It's owned and operated by two retirees: Jeanette & Pete Carrigan. They are very friendly and out-going, and are finally doing what they love! This ecclectic store is surrounded by goodies, and filled with goodies! I took some pictures to share with you, in case you were ever in the area. It's in Lenhartsville, PA, which is only about 30 minutes from Bethlehem.




















Anyone who goes into this store will find something.... it's just one of those exciting places where your imagination runs wild! I left with a couple vintage clothing pieces, two owls, two cookie cutters and a harmonica! I could have come back with much more, believe me! I was restrained because I was shopping with a new friend. Otherwise, I know I would've been very bad and bought so much more!
