That time of year

 So basically, we are 'laid off'  for the Thanksgiving week, thus I am on a vacation of sorts.  Knowing that means more walks(!), I decided to put one post up today of pictures.

First, let's go to Monday night...

No, no, not football, walk!

This is actually Laurie going to the car to go to work, lol

I thought Misty might like exploring the 'beach'...

...but I thought wrong.

Yesterday afternoon, I decided a celebratory walk to Shoaff would be apropos...

Beautiful day for it

Durn lawn service...

Some trees do gold better than others...

Guessing we won't be seeing the herons today

At last, we arrive

"Good to see you!  Have a nut?"

Possible varmintage

"Hey, they cleared out all the brush by the landing!"

Watching her ship come in

I told them, "Hey, I cut the fabric on your boat cover!"

If were going around the Big Circle, Daddy needs a rest

So these two guys back their trucks up to the river.  I thought, "What's this, a drag race?"

Nope, just background casting for pictures- good idea!

One last dip...

Misty off-roads

Narrow trail, sharp drop, and leaves?  No thanks

If you are dumb enough to write this on the trail, I'd guess, no

"I thought you said, no doggies on the golf course!"  "No, I said a guy I used to run into said they spray something on the courses that gave his dog cancer.  Any other questions?"

So much for slowing down

On the way home

We're over an hour and a half in... now doggie is slowing down

Cutting across the back

the Home stretch

Finally, here's this morning...

Geez, it's bright

Goldfinches have lost their breeding color, but I can tell them the way they fly

Once again, fireplace haze

It may look like he's pooping but he really wasn't

See?  He even posed a moment later

The end, for now....
