Bus #17 let me off at Springhouse Drive and Far Hills Avenue where I hiked over to The Great Miami River to grab some distant shots of Carillon Park framed by the beautifully autumn quilt rising up behind it.

I had just stepped foot inside the visitors’ center when the clouds finally let go of their full load of water that has carried us through the remainder of the day.

I managed to take some photos throughout the park while balancing the umbrella in one hand and my camera in the other. I finally gave up and grabbed the arriving #18 bus to the Wright Stop hub, downtown, and grabbed #1 for East Third Street to have lunch at Taqueria.

Since the rain was taking full command of the day I decided to head home where I napped, researched, and enjoyed time with The Quartet.

And that was my Halloween.
