While I was at Picnic Point last weekend, I came across a section of woods that was completely yellow.
Peak colors at Picnic Point
I went hiking along Picnic Point this afternoon.
The foliage there seemed to be at peak autumn color.
October blossoms
I don’t think of late October as being a good time for flowers.
But when I visited Olbrich Gardens this afternoon, I saw some gorgeous autumn blossoms, like these zinnias.
8 miles high?
Actually, this is a photo taken from a small bridge over a pond. I suppose there’s still a lot of life to behold, whether you’re eight miles above the Earth, or eight feet above a pond.
Garage painted
Over the weekend I finally painted the front of my garage. It’s still a piece of junk, but at least it matches the house (from the street).
That’s another finished item off the home improvement list, another dozen or so to go.

Waiting for lunch
How long does it take a spider to a spin web that big? (About a foot and a half in diameter). Hope he got a good meal after all that.
The goldenrod nemesis
Meet the current nemesis of my sinuses: goldenrod.
It’s certainly been a bad year for seasonal allergies in Wisconsin.
Fields of gold
Last weekend, while hiking at Lake Kegonsa State Park, I discovered this golden soybean field bordering the park.
