A Picture Perfect Fall Day

This past Sunday we enjoyed a field trip to the west, driving to Metamora, Indiana on a glorious fall day. The day was crisp, breezy and sunny; perfect for wandering through this old canal town. Metamora is quaint, historic, interesting, picturesque and all the other similar adjectives you can think of. Old homes, old storefronts turned into all sorts of shops and restaurants, a picture-perfect gazebo, big shade trees, the path along the canal, the mill - everything - makes it a wonderful little town tucked away in the hills of southeastern Indiana. We arrived later in the afternoon and all the shops were getting ready to close but that didn't bother us. We weren't there to shop - we just wanted to enjoy the sights and the scene. There weren't many other visitors around since it was late in the day, so we were able to take our time, uninterrupted, as we strolled and snapped pictures. Good times!
