We can always talk about the weather…especially these days

This has been a protracted Fall. It seems to be happening in stages with some nice foliage colors at each stage — not the impact of when they all turn at once, but still nice.

Perhaps it’s the weather. Week to week, or even day to day, I’m never certain what to expect so why would trees be any less confused.

Autumn colors along the river bank - Earl Moore Photography

Just around the bend

While the dam and often waterfalls are main attractions of the Cooleemee River Park, a walk above the dam can be interesting as well.  There’s a trail which wanders along the river bank there with spots the local fishermen frequent evident along it. I followed this trail for perhaps a quarter of a mile before deciding to turn back on this particular visit and was rewarded for my exploration with a flash of autumn color along the river bank.
