When dark December glooms the day, And takes our autumn joys away; When short and scant the sun-beam throws, Upon the weary waste of snows… ~Walter Scott, Marmion, 1808 Source: Quote Garden

Edwin Way Teale Quote: Autumn
“For man, autumn is a time of harvest, of gathering together. For nature, it is a time of sowing, of scattering abroad.” ~ Edwin Way Teale
Mother Earth ~ Mitchell Burgess
“If winter is slumber and spring is birth, and summer is life, then autumn rounds out to be reflection. It’s a time of year when the leaves are down and the harvest is in and the perennials are gone. Mother Earth just closed up the drapes on another year and it’s time to reflect onContinue reading “Mother Earth ~ Mitchell Burgess”

Friday Afternoon Sunset
It was 60 degrees at 4:28 pm. When I saw the colorful sky, I knew I had to take the photo of it. In about 4 weeks, the sun will be setting at or around 4:10 pm.

The leaves on the tree are not as bright in color, as it was a couple of days ago.
