What do you love about fall? The  Fall Elements Blog Hop is devoted to that question!

A special thanks goes to Toltec Jewels for organizing this blog hop.  I hope you enjoy it!


 I am happy to report that I was able to go camping this fall at Yellowstone National Park and the Grand Tetons.  This trip was sandwiched in between the flood in Colorado which canceled our plans to go to Rocky Mountain National Park.  We decided to extend our stay in Yellowstone National Park and the Grand Tetons.  The stay was then shorten a few days by a forecast of a major snowfall.  The weather forecast got us moving home to Delaware quickly.  We got home a few days before the Federal Government closed the national parks.We did seen lots of gorgeous wildlife and flora. 
I want to share with you a few photos of the wildlife that I took this autumn in Wyoming.

Wildlife in Yellowstone National Park

To celebrate my favorite season,  I also put together a digital magazine which features my jewelry that I made especially with autumn in mind.  I have a sampling of some of my fall jewelry on the front cover.  My favorite fall activities center around the great outdoors.  I love to go camping during this time of the year because the temperatures are perfect for it.  In this magazine I  have included of my favorite wooded spots, some autumn quotes and a fun poem.  Special foods are also part of my summer so you will find some luscious recipes.  This issue is about what inspires my fall creations. I hope you enjoy my digital magazine.  Thank you for looking through my digital magazine.

      I love Glossi's but I wonder how they appear to other people. I try to keep mine short in hopes that folks can view it without waiting too long. There are lots of Glossi's that I can't even view. I don't know if it is a MAC issue or they are just filled with too many large file photos. They take me a while to make so I hope they can be viewed ok!

      Thank you! The color combinations are a bit bold for me but they are in the bracelet bar and I love Humblebeads so I thought I would go out of my comfort zone and have a bright, cheery piece.

    Sounds like you had a great trip. I am sure you are glad you got out before that snow came, it was so early for such a bad storm. Love the bracelet and am off to look at the magazine.
