My look will say how knowing feels

This is how it looks like at Paratiisi ("Paradise"), which is in Nuuksio south of Salmi. Nice wide paths for walking, and rather quiet environment, no noise from the roads and little noise from aircraft.

Ah, dream too bright to last!

Yesterday I went for a walk with my daughter to Paratiisi in Nuuksio, south of Salmi. There was some heavy rain yesterday, but luckily that stopped while we got to the parking lot at the end of the narrow road. Autumn colors have almost disappeared, brown and black has replaced the bright colors. We walked for 1 1/2 hours, and it got dark before we got back to the car, but that was all right, we didn't stray far from the wide well-marked paths.

The photograph was taken on October 23, over a week ago. I should start going through the newer photographs, maybe there is some time for that today.
