After weeks (months, really) of obnoxiously hot weather, it looks like Fall is finally here. The leaves are starting to turn, and every time a puff of wind blows a shower of pine needles lands on the RV roof, sounding like rain. In fact, as a I write, a cold wind is making Harvey rock.

Today’s weather forecast is for the first snows at the top of the mountains, and frost overnight. There’s a steady wind blowing and the sky is overcast. They’re saying this is the first wintry storm; I’m rather glad.

Yesterday in Weaverville I noticed how hard the bunting on our drugstore, CVS, was blowing, and liked the way the shadows and colors played together. More than anything they seemed to be saying, “The seasons are changing.”

I snapped a photo, and this is the result.
