From the Oregon/California Notebook
A photo from the trip in October along the coasts of Oregon and California. On a winding road along the way, we stopped to turn in at the sign for a waterfall. What we found was water and woods dripping in moss.

The Prairie at Ryerson Woods
I drove out the other day to see the art center at Brushwood at Ryerson Woods. What a lovely discovery.

A Riot of Color
November 3rd and 72 degrees here. Full sun, lovely breezes. Great weather for walking. "Golden days," my mother used to call these types of days. I want to be outside all day. I know that colder, gray days are coming, so I yearn to store up all the warmth and color I can.

After I'd come in, I still wasn't satisfied, so Willy and I took a long walk to Lindberg Park and back. Tomorrow, we are off to Ryerson Woods. I hope the weather holds.
