So the weather has been a bit interesting lately in my corner of the world. The mushrooms were photographed on October 17, a nice comfortable autumn day, warm enough yet for growing wild fungi.
Then things went downhill, we had a minor accumulation of snow on November 8, it was cold enough for it to stick around for a few hours. Then on the 9th some more snow and colder.
On the night of the 13th the ground started to freeze in shaded areas.
November 14 and Winter Storm Avery drops by for a visit and leaves 5.2 inches of snow.
Tomorrow, the 21st, it is back to mid 50s and sunny once again.
My dad used to say ” If you don’t like the weather stick around, something you do like will come through shortly. ”
Good times!
Nice photos. Winter has arrived here early too. We hit a record the other day. Last night it was in the single digit.

That is cold! The lowest we have been so far was 15. Hopefully this isn’t a preview of what winter will be like.

I love your photos. While you freeze, we swelter.

Thank you. Sometimes when one is deep in summer or winter it is good to be reminded that a change will come. Our weather has moderated to something more of the plain vanilla, late autumn sort, cloudy, chilly and rather damp. Hopefully you will not have to shelter too much.

I’m still around and glad to see you are back Unfortunately the blogging had to be placed on the back burner while other life things needed most of my time and energy to deal with.

Glad to hear you are okay. I stopped blogging because I got burned out and wanted to do other things. Hoping to get back into it again. I do miss your posts and photographs.
