Seeing this would be my last day off work for the next week, I really wanted to get back to Victoria Park to take some pictures before the incredible fall colours were gone.
The weather was cloudy (the weather forecast predicted rain in the late afternoon) which was even better for the type of pictures I had in mind, so I nabbed the nearest victim, daughter number 3, who happened to be home and off we went.
The park was nearly empty, (fantastic!) but just as we got out of the car, the rain started. I snapped a few pictures by the brook and then we scurried to the back of the park, near the falls, to wait out the “shower” under one of the shelters. Daughter thought it was terribly funny that I didn’t get to take the pictures that she had finally agreed to have taken.
The “shower” continued for an hour. We had to give up in the end (daughter had to go to work or else I most likely would have been still there waiting for the rain to end)….
