a couple of pictures

September 28, 2002


There's so much more to "fall color" in Massachusetts than red maple leaves and orange pumpkins. In bloom: purple New England asters, bright yellow goldenrod, yarrow and even still some patches of Queen Anne's lace, butter and eggs, chicory, and that's just the weeds... Migrating monarch butterflies and non-migrating cabbage whites. Dragonflies in all kinds of jewel tones. The grasses aren't all just brown either, they are a whole range of gold, amber, yellow, red, purple, and a dozen shades of brown. And blue sky. Wicked blue sky. The sky is bluer in October. Way bluer.
