tamaracks

Clear. We have had a long stretch of unusually good weather for this time of year. Corn fields have been reduced to stubble, and with the falling of the leaves, vistas have opened up in a way we haven't seen since early in the spring. The tamaracks are turning. They are one of the last to go. They resemble the remains in the asparagus patch both in shape and in color. Allyn was in Ohio for the weekend, and I did my daily meditation in front of the wood stove on cold November mornings.
