It was a rainy day today and I hadn't planned to get out but Carolyn wanted to go to a particular restaurant for lunch which was well past the town of Sparta. So rather than just drive there and wish I had a camera - should we spot some good looking trees - I brought my camera along.
We did see a couple of nice looking groups as we drove along the John Wise Line which I stopped to capture. The second was near the restaurant so I decided to get it on the way back. The actual restaurant had some nice grounds that would normally have made for a lovely walk and probably had some nice items worth photographing but the intermittent rain kept me from exploring the grounds. I will need to return as the food was very good and deserves a future visit.
As we retraced our path, I stopped at the location we spotted on the way in and there I enjoyed the reds of the trees while I took a few photos but it was getting duller by the minute and I didn't want to stay long. The drive back went quickly with nothing to attract my camera. The rain and winds got very heavy not long after we reached the safety of our room.
