Well, it’s snowing today in Haines, the first of the season, with a winter weather advisory and everything. We are in Tenakee Springs. Down in the tropics on Chichagof Island (for a few more days) where it is raining, again.
But yesterday was a beautiful day for a hike-
And what a day to ride the Juneau ferry. What a day to wake up, then again every day you are upright is a good one, as the old folks say–
It’s true. All the days — rain, clouds and some sun breaks– have offered up plenty of fall colors.
some astonishingly so–
The bikes and buggy at the foot of the school stairs are a sure sign of fall. The home school meets up there, and there’s morning childcare for the littlest residents.
A make-shift rain porch at the boat building shop. Firewood stays dry-ish under more of those handy tarps–
Life without cars is pretty great.
They say we may get some flurries here in a few days. It looks like we are ready.
In the meantime, there’s a stew in the pot, a fire in the stove, and the dogs are ready for another walk.
