Late Afternoon Stroll


Come along. . .

Willa's waiting . . .

The Italian Arum seed heads are ripening . . . 

The sweet smell of milkweed fills the air . . .

Too early for this . . .

The path into the woods . . .

Sunlight through the leaves . . .

Hmm . . . who was this?

The graceful curve of a pokeweed bloom . . .
 
Cloud shadows on the mountains . . . 
And a last kiss of the sun, glistening on ferns.

If you are lucky enough to live in the mountains,
you are lucky enough.

A saying a friend has written on an exposed rafter in her dining room. We are so lucky to live here, to be able to see these mountains daily, how they change with the light. And Willa is pretty special too!!

Just beautiful. (Hope you had your insect repellent handy though.) I just love the light and shadows.

Time to begin to plan our fall trip to the mountains. Never have lived there, but it always feels like coming home. Wonderful pictures.

"who was this?"
If it had been: what is this? I would have suggested: a huge four-leaf clover!
Lovely pictures.
