With my new job starting on Monday, Jeanine and I decided to share some couples time making a day trip to Turners Falls where we enjoyed an out of this world lunch at the Great Falls Harvest restaurant.  A leisurely walk along the river and through the town made for a delightful afternoon on what is likely to be the last perfect day of fall. We also visited Millers Falls and the Quabbin reservoir.

Jeanine spotted this magnificent tree which is no doubt the prettiest of the season. It was located on private property and guarded by a rather threatening dog so I had to make do with a photo through the open car window. The full resolution original image is simply amazing.
