Currently here, at Aurora, ME...68F, Dew Point 52F, Winds NW 7mph, Balmy and growing cloudy....
Walked the Blueberry Barrens (which surround our property), this late morning! Astounded by the depth of colors in the woods surrounding the Meadows and across the Barrens...I don't have the words to describe them, but will say it appears someone who is passionately in love, took their brush and splashed their vibrant paint everywhere with abandon!
Last year, this passion was more personal We saw from afar, upon our return home from work, the old Rock Maple Trees (there are five of them at least 150+ yrs old), in front of out house, which embraced our home with their strong limbs and caress our windows, with their tender branches, now painted a yellow color I can only describe as Glorious.... We stood under their canopy gazing up, through to a brilliant blue sky and sounds of estacy escaped our lips as we took pictures with our cameras!
This year, however, the Birch Meadows drew us across their undulating hills, to the Blueberry Barrens, where we were embraced and entranced by their beauty as we stood (with a 180 degree view), once again in awe, and took photographs!
What an amazing time to be alive! To experience the passionate passing of a Season, with ones whom we love!
Oh, wait, this isn't Hawaii! This is the "frigid" Eastern U.S. that a multitude of vivacious personalities keep blathering about. Well golly gee, looks like those people were just spouting crap out of the wrong end!
Let the eternal summer commence yet again! In the meantime I'll be looking for places to relocate to that don't have multi-week streaks of honest-to-God tropical weather in the middle of the bloody autumn. At the rate Earth's climate is going, I may have to look at Mars to have a decent shot at meeting that criterion.
Just another summer day here. Max "Just" 76°F today. Normal is 66°. And it was cloudy to boot. Hot and Cloudy in Fall. Southern Michigan...again....80s.
