Random Out-Doing-Errands Pics

I went out to run a few errands tonight. I took a couple of pics. The grocery cart pic was taken about one minute after the Bruins scored their first goal of the season to take a 1-0 lead over Washington. We’re in the second intermission right now and we’re up 3-2. Bergeron, Pastrnak, and Hall with the Bruins goals.

Back Yard Foliage Update

We’re still barely underway here in the Merrimack Valley, but there is some color. Not good color, really, but it’s something.

This tree is almost done, but the tree next to it hasn’t even started turning yet.

This guy has made good progress since the last time I looked, but still has a long way to go.

I kinda like the reds here, but most of it is just going to be the same old blah yellow. Blah. 41/365

In summation… bird.

Autumn in the Back Yard Update

I went outside just now to bring out the trash. I took the opportunity to get an update on the fall foliage in the back yard. I will break the two minute experience into three pieces.

Part One: The Leaves are Changing

A couple of trees are turning yellow

This thing is turning… red? Purple?

Part Two: Are These Poisonous?

If the deer eat these berries will they get sick?

Part Three: Frogger

Every time I bring out the trash, this frog is on the lid waiting for me.

This was after I lifted the lid. Mr Frog looks like he’s hanging on for dear life.

And that is the summary of the two minutes I was outside. The sun is blazing and the air temperature is a glorious 73 degrees. It’s practically summer again except that it will probably be chilly again in a day or two.
