Hillside full of goldenrod
While I love the deep yellow color of all this goldenrod in one place, I can’t help but think of my allergy laden sinuses and wonder how long it will be until the first frost.
Update: Goldenrod is not the cause of seasonal allergies this time of year! Details in my post from September 22, 2022.

The fallen
A reminder of warmer times, and a warning of the cold that is to come.

I went hiking along Picnic Point this afternoon.
The foliage there seemed to be at peak autumn color.

I saw my first glimpse of autumn while out hiking today: a maple tree, that decided it was time to start changing color.
