Almost all of the leaves are down from the trees in my yard. That’s always kind of a depressing moment for me. With the leaves down, that means the hours of daylight are getting less and less everyday.
While I do love autumn, and enjoy the experience of the four seasons here in Wisconsin, the ever encroaching “season of darkness” is my least favorite time of the year.
While hiking at a local park last weekend, I came across all kinds of milkweed plants. Most were spreading their seeds before the winter sets in.
One of my shrubs (that I didn’t hack way down last week) has a lot of berries on it.
I wonder… what kind of plant is it? Are the berries edible?
Seen at Olbrich Park a few days ago.
After a delicious (and very filling) Thanksgiving dinner, my father, sister, her friend Dennis, and I went for a short walk in the late afternoon sun.
