on shutting down

Sometimes you just need to shut your mind down to open your eyes. The kind of peacefulness that retreating into the mountains can bring is enlightening and much needed. Our daily strolls were so filled with beauty. The changing of the leaves reflecting off the lakes makes you reflect on your own thoughts.
I tried hard not to focus on taking pictures and just unplug for the majority of our trip but sometimes you just need to capture the moment. For instance, Jake's first time horseback riding. Growing up I spent several summers perched upon a horse, so I couldn't let him pass up the opportunity. He and Macaroni (his horse) made good friends and I was in love with my Bart.
And who can pass up on being a creeper and stalking that adorable elderly couple sitting by the lake? Not this girl. I'll continue to creep on, thank you very much.
