A walk in the woods

Yesterday we went for a walk in the woods- but really, it was our backyard. Now that Thanksgiving is over.. we have Christmas on the brain. However, yesterday was not Christmas-like or winter-y.. until I saw this..

..it reminded me of what season it really was. Nature decorating in red and green; even if only in small spurts.

Because Halloween (and Thanksgiving) are really over..

"That's weird," I said when I saw the bright orange lump of wax. "It's the candle from that pumpkin" I told Jason. I don't remember the pumpkin lasting long before it was covered in all kinds of black mold.. but who knows if it just disintegrated or if it was burned into nothingness.

Come on winter, get here fast.. and bring some snow. A little bit I mean.. a little bit of snow.
