Very Cold Sunset
Saturday was opening day of deer season. While Glen was out sitting in his deer stand, he took a few pictures of the sunset.

Changing Colors
Within the span of just a few minutes the colors of the rising sun change drastically.
Acorn
While Glen and I were at Knob Noster State Park hiking the trails we saw lots of neat things. There were a lot of oak trees that have dropped a lot of acorns. This one particular acorn caught our eye. It was cracked open so we could see the nut inside, which was reddish in color. I have never seen an acorn with red meat and I am not able to find anywhere on the “all knowing internet” as to why it would be red. We did get a lot of rain last week and maybe it had been soaking in some muddy water and the tannins in the nut made it turn red…..that is my best guess.
Bunches of Berries
Our mulberry tree is completely covered with berries. So far only a few have ripened, but it is going to be a bumper crop.
Glen was helping himself to some for an after dinner dessert.
However, the price for eating tasty mulberries are purple stained fingers.
The Twist
Since it has warmed up some we decided to take a stroll in the timber behind our house where we came across this twisty tree.
Washed Out
Glen went out hiking with a friend and took some pictures of an unfortunate tree facing adversity. It was rooted into the dike of a pond, and as you can see, the pond washed out under the tree.
Only one
This fall has really been a beautiful one with all the trees changing colors. Only one shrub in our front yard got into the swing of things.
Sadly, it won’t be long before all the leaves are on the ground and the trees/shrubs are bare. I love autumn…..not looking forward to winter. :-\
