After the little rain we received a few weeks ago, this aster tried to come back to life. The flowers are basically attached to the side of a dead plant.

It’s Slipper Season…
Posted by Christi On October 18, 2011
…it’s the first day where there is a chill in the air, so it’s time to get the slippers out!
BTW, this photo is heavily edited…just playing around to give it a different look.

Mountain Cow…Most Unexpected
Posted by Alison On October 17, 2011
Okey doke, David. Here’s the cow at your request.
We got to make a day trip to Cloudcroft, New Mexico for my job (long story) last year. Here’s my favorite picture from that trip: Mountain Cow 2010
We got to go again this year. Upper Carr Canyon is one of our favorite spots for fall color. Nothing there at this Lincoln National Forest recreation site but a small parking lot, a hiking trail, and lots and lots of gorgeous trees.
Apparently humanfolk aren’t the only ones who enjoy a jaunt on public land. Right before we left Upper Carr, I spotted something moving in the trees about 100 yards away.
A longer look told me it was a cow. And Bessie was trotting our way.
She hedged only a little when she saw us, but her stride never broke…
…And then she lumbered on up the hiking trail and disappeared into the trees.
Before we left the parking lot a few minutes later, a pickup pulling a small livestock trailer passed us. Methinks Bessie’s “the-hills-are-alive” moment got cut short.

Surprise. I’m taking a picture in my back yard

I really need to be a little more original instead of just doing the exact same thing all last year and this year.

I found fall
Posted by David On October 14, 2011
Okay, I found fall in Cloudcroft. I hope this isn’t selfish of me to do, but I want to post three today. It’s tough to decide and they are three very different pictures.

Cheating today with two…
Posted by Christi On October 14, 2011
….by adding two photos. Kat & I went to the playground today and there was this wierd tree. 3/4 of it looked normal (with leaves), but the other 1/4 of it was covered with this… (maybe mistletoe, but it completely took the place of the leaves…was NOT a separate plant at all.)
This second photo is another view of the pavilion that I already posted (I think that it was on the 2nd.) I just really liked the way that this photo turned out.
