Just Like Fire: The Burning Autumn Color

I noticed this tree all aglow yesterday on my way home. I quickly went home, got my camera and returned hoping to catch the fiery color.

Trouble is, I was in such a frenzy with only a few minutes until meeting my family for dinner, that I somehow dropped my extra camera battery in my only charger while replacing the battery there. Like I was putting it in the bag and missed the bag.

I went back when I discovered it gone last night with flashlights. Mike and I walked around fruitlessly sweeping the ground with light.

Off to check it out in the daylight now.

I hate to lose stuff, especially when it is valuable to me, especially when it is expensive to replace. I hate making silly, costly mistakes.

Worth the shot?! I'm not so sure. I need to slow down sometimes. Praying I find it now and that it still works despite the dew.

Sigh.

UPDATE: Breaking News...I found them in the wet grass. Felt like giving up, prayed hard and Boom there it was. So grateful!!! Praising God today!

@hueymilunz That would be horrifying. I did that with my purse over the summer. My heart nearly stopped. Camera stuff is worse.
