WELCOME TO NOVEMBER |
BIG WINDS BRING BIG WAVES |
THOUGHT THESE WERE FISHERMEN AT FIRST ON BAYFIELD'S SOUTH PIER BUT NO THEY ARE SURFERS |
LEAPING INTO LAKE HURON'S COLD WATERS |
I THINK THE LAKE SWALLOWED THAT FELLOW UP |
THE SECOND GUY JUMPS IN |
OH THERE THEY ARE |
OVERNIGHT WINDS HAVE STRIPPED MANY TREES OF THEIR COLORFUL LEAVES |
JUST A FEW DAYS AGO THERE WAS STILL A LOT OF COLOR ALONG THIS ROAD |
WIND AND RAIN HAVE PRETTY WELL STRIPPED THIS BUSH LINE OF IT'S AUTUMN'S COLOR |
THE GRAY DAYS OF NOVEMBER ARE NOW FAST UPON US |
LOOKS LIKE A BIT OF SLEET ACCUMULATION ON THIS BARN ROOF |
AT LEAST OUR EVERGREEN TREES WILL STAY GREEN ALL WINTER |
PROTECTED FROM OVERNIGHT WINDS THIS BUSH LINE HAS TEMPORARILY HELD ON TO SOME OF IT'S AUTUMN COLOR |
“Waiter, these are very small oysters!”
Waiter: “Yes sir, they are very small.”
Customer: “Also, they do not appear to be very fresh!”
Waiter with a resourceful response: “Then it’s lucky they’re small, isn’t it sir.”
=================
What a cold blustery day it was no getting away for it thats for sure.
ReplyDeleteI am always sad when the fall color gives way to the monochrome of winter. Yes the conifers are green, but my eye seems to dwell on the browns, greys, and whites. The storm front in your area previously rolled in and dumped a lot of early fall snow on us, pretty much snowing in the jeep roads I like to drive. Too early to take the camper south, but soon I am heading to Moab to play jeep with friends. That should help set aside the cabin fever of this past snowy week. Take care Al and Kelly.

ReplyDeleteWinter is i-cumin in, Lhude sing.....you may know the rest.
The leaves came raining down here today. That's for sure. I'm hoping November will be mild but this first cold week coming up is not boding well.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe there were surfers in those rough and cold waters. Only the young,..
Wish the rain was coming to California where it is needed and would really help with all of the fires.
ReplyDeleteI feel your pain, I never liked days like that. That is when I would crawl back in my cave for the winter.
ReplyDeleteThere are amazing waves and brave fellows out there playing in the water. Great shots.
ReplyDeleteYes, yuck, it's November! Those are some big waves, and crazy surfers!
ReplyDeleteI feel your pain here in southwest Utah, where it hasn't rained for 140 days and nights. Send a shower our way, but you can keep the cold...
