Fall isn’t officially here yet and the weather keeps reminding us of that lovely little fact. But before the 90-degree weather settled in for the day, my sister and I took a little trip this morning to the park by where I work. I call this place “The Fens” because of the marshy pond that makes for serene nature photography. There wasn’t a duck or goose in sight on this occasion, though I’m always more drawn to the plant life anyway – at least for photos. The cattails, the wildflowers, the autumn berries…and I think my favorite shot I got today is the one of the thistle.
I can’t wait for the cool, crisp temperatures to take over. I can’t wait to be outside more.
I have never needed the serenity of nature like I have this year.
I realize I look a bit “drag” in these photos, but I assure you, I am a woman.
Just for fun, I’m adding in this photo I took at the Fens last year on September 1st.

My name is Jacquelyn, I’m in my early 30’s, living in northeastern Oklahoma. I love to be in nature and my garden, working on my photography, creating beauty, decorating, styling and designing, cooking, baking, making crafts, singing, and overall aspiring to be a (blogging) domestic goddess.
I’m a witchy “old soul” that prefers the company of animals over most people, but I’m also a huge analyst of psychology - the human psyche, emotions and mental health. I watch true crime shows and read up on behavioral profiling. I have a fetish for the dark, creepy, and mysterious. I love adventurous quests and scavenger hunts, walking and hiking trails, and scenic road trips.
