Driving through Autumn, Part Two

Computer recovery continues as Carbonite restores my documents and thousands of photographs.   Worth every cent.

In the meantime, autumn marches inexorably to that time when I'll need the studded snow tires mounted on my vehicles, and it is not a chore I enjoy.  As I write, the wild, wet, windy weather of last evening has morphed into an eerie stillness with rain falling straight down, mixed in with some suspiciously large and individually-seen white drops that I don't care to identify.

There's a fire in the woodstove, a mug of hot chocolate by my side, and the Seattle Seahawks game  soon to begin, assuming those large white drops don't obscure the satellite signal.

Time to go back a week or two and continue our drive through autumn.

An evergreen that turns yellow?   I'll have to check this out.

And home to my driveway.

Let's do this again.   Stay tuned.

Driving through Autumn, Part One

My computer, laptop, and tablet may have been down for a couple weeks, but my cameras were not.  All this occurred during our late autumn, notwithstanding an unusually early snowfall on Sept. 26.

Starting now, I will post a series of autumn photos, with little yakking on my part.   I hope you enjoy them as I continue working to restore all the Word docs and photos on my computer.

So, here we go:   Driving through Autumn

A breeze tempts the fireweed seed to fly.

And I have lots, lots more.
