Babs Young thought you might like to see October in Michigan from the overlook on Kidder Road. I expect she’s right. You might want to click on the photo to get a bigger version. I would if I were you.
It was not easy getting this posted, no indeed, but Babs and I are crafty. My ISP and her ISP do not always play nicely. We have a workaround. If that ever fails, I believe I’m going to look into making postcards. I could send you a nice little packet each week–real mail in your real mailbox. Probably wouldn’t be any more trouble than dealing with the current state of the infrastructure in the Township.
Now, having spent a good deal of the morning on all this, I’m off to see about the Car Issues. Will the delights never end? Must maintain equanimity. Perhaps I’ll take the Duo for a walk over on Kidder Road.

I did click. Oh my! So lovely. The colours in Nova Scotia just don’t match this.

Thank you, Sybil. It would take an extraordinary set of circumstances to dislodge me from Michigan in October.

Gorgeous color Gerry! I’m still waiting for the gloriousness here – we have hints of color, but nothing like that. My duo and I took a wonderful walk this weekend searching for color – well, I was searching for color, what they were searching for may have been more dubious.

I believe dogs are color blind. Their noses make up for it, though, and they think we’re scent blind. Which begs the question of why they get into the things they do. No accounting for taste, I suppose.

That is just gorgeous. There’s no other word for it. Mama Nature likes to show off a bit, now and again.
That said, I’ve already spent far too many hours raking up dead leaves, and I’d almost be grateful for a bit of a big wind to knock the rest off in one go!

Thank you, Fee. Mama Nature at her best, no doubt about it. Babs, too.
Here at the Writing Studio and Bait Shop we do not rake. We sweep the leaves off the deck, but that’s it. We are firm believers in Recycling in Place. So far so good.

One of my favorite places to see whichever season’s panorama!

Yes! Although I had deep second thoughts about it last winter. There I was, headed over to the brewing workshop at Wagbo, and thinking Kidder Road would be a nice way to go. (See The yeast did not die in vain.)

Oh, yes…so glad I clicked too!
This is just beautiful. But really, wasn’t it just yesterday we were all discussing how the buds burst into leaves seemingly overnight? Sometimes I feel like I’m on a runaway train that just keeps speeding up…

Good morning, all – thank you for dropping by – glad you clicked and glad you liked the view from Kidder Road.
It is a runaway train. Nothing to be done about that part. Enjoy the ride, the company, and the excellent treats.
