After a summer of heat and smoke, fall comes as a great relief. Cool temperatures, clean air, fall colors – what could be better?

We’ve had some much needed rain this week and it’s beginning to feel like fall, suddenly it seems.
Willow and I finished up our volunteer time in the mountains last week. The fall colors were coming on strong. Weather was a mix of damp and dry days and we had a short snow squall. We enjoyed lots of time on the trails, remembering the times we shared them with Sky. The night sky was illuminated by the waxing gibbous moon. It’s a beautiful season.
It’s a gray day with the feel of snow in the air. Looks like it might be snowing now. I find it hard to say goodbye to fall but it’s time. No more fall colors, no more brisk hikes in the hills. Soon the hills will be snow-covered and I’ll be waxing my skies. Here are a few fall scenes from this month.
Despite wet, windy conditions, the girls and I managed to get out most days for some sort of walk, hike, ramble amid the beautiful trees, rocks, meadows of the north cascades. The colors were saturated and the air was fresh and clean. My favorite time of year.
