This year seemed to fly by. Is time faster than the speed of light? (I suppose if time was faster we’d be able to time travel.) Sometimes it feels that way — much too fast.

Wandering in the woods

The earth around here is back to its natural boggy state, and sometimes getting down into the woods can be an adventure when the ground is wet and slippery. I must have been in the mood for adventure this morning.
A light dusting

The house-sitter should be all settled in, ready to enjoy a few days by the pond and with the kitties. She’s going to have some nice weather. It should be nice back east too.
Checking in with November

I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape — the loneliness of it, the dead feeling of winter. Something waits beneath it, the whole story doesn’t show.
