Nature walk

The other day I was talking to my brother on the phone and somehow we got talking

about the fall colors and how he wishes they were just a little more like the fall colors

the year before our family moved to Utah. Which got us talking about leaves, which got

 me lamenting about an assignment our Cam was trying to finish for his Honors Biology

class that involved leaves and identification and ideally, would somehow involve

someone who knew a whole lot more about trees and leaves then Cam's parents.

And in that moment I realized there was something seriously wrong with me, because I had

failed to think about the fact that my brother is literally a nature expert. I don't have words

to express how much he knows about everything in nature. His son, who is only six, 

knows more about the outdoors than any adult I have ever met. The two of them together?

 I had just struck gold. And the fact that my brother has an amazing heart, meant that he

 immediately offered to take a nature walk with us and help out in the leaf department.

So naturally, I took along the camera to capture some of the great fall colors.

But my hands-down favorite picture of the afternoon? Yeah, this one right here.

 These two are not just handsome, they are awesome and kind in every way.

Thanks Tai and Ray! You guys are truly the best.
