West of Faribault on Sunday afternoon.
I NEVER TIRE OF IT. Never. Autumn in Minnesota is stunningly beautiful. Stunning.
A Sunday afternoon drive took my husband and me west of our Faribault home along Cedar Lake Boulevard and then on Old Dodd Road, all the way to Kilkenny.
Lake Francis, Elysian
From the Irish settlement, we continued west and then south and west and south and, well, I don’t navigate, until we entered Elysian from the north.
Tetonka Lake, Waterville
We then aimed back east and north along a dusty gravel road and then a tar road to Waterville.
Northeast of Waterville.
We traveled through the North Morristown area and, nearing Faribault, skirted Cannon Lake on the north and east.
It was, for us, a leisurely horseshoe drive to view lovely Autumn, dressed in her Sunday best.
North and east of Waterville somewhere, maybe closer to North Morristown.
A lovely treeline somewhere on the eastern end of our route.
Along Seventh Street in Faribault….my community has stunning autumn colors along many, many residential streets.
A block away up the hill from my house are some of the most blazing gorgeous trees in town lining Second Avenue Southwest by Bethlehem Academy.
