Pictures... and why

 Why?  We are in a deep, deep hole of "way ahead" at work.  Our sister plant is even "caught up"- and if you've followed any of my semi-obscured references to them, you know that means that they ran out of work, too, rather than, "Wow, we became efficient overnight!"  That said, here's a couple of walks worth of pics- have to say, Monday didn't show us near as much as Tuesday...

Good to know, I guess

Saw plenty squirrels Monday

Fall colors...

...and, oh yeah, squirrels.

Tuesday

Misty watching the little yellow butterfly up there in the corner

and more squirrels...

And a little Woody...

Dude was fishing at the landing (we thought), so Misty had to go downstream for a dip.  She wasn't sure, but braved it like a champ

Meanwhile, the fisherman wasn't on the landing at all, but in his kayak!

I told this lady, "I salute you!  I got worn out with just one of those!"

And finally, a wooly worm!  Forecast: light on the snow, but a bit colder than last year...

Four steps later, a second one confirmed...

And now for Wednesday... was scheduled to be an early walk, but we got "pea souped" until a bit later...

Almost 10- still soupy

How about a slightly used mouth guard?

Sun coming through made a neat effect

Fort Wayne, are you there?

left turn to the MUCH longer way...

The soon to be former Korean BBQ.  Announced they are closing this week

How 'bout some fresh exotic mushrooms?

And just like that, the skies were blue

Further north, the fog had risen, but not dissipated

Can I offer you a comforter?

Or would you prefer some wood asters?

Tis the season... this guy on the left, though, has a built in slogan if he;s smart- "Vote for Engling!  He'll buy you a Yuengling!"

At that is ourformer, within-walking-distance Walgreens, somehow deemed irrelevant by the powers that be

Unlike our last long walk, it's all downhill from here!
