"It looked like the world was covered in a cobbler crust of brown sugar and cinnamon..."-Sarah Addison Allen
The forest in the valley before Mt. Washington range, from my front window.Yum Yum, one of the urban deer who lives in the green belt and regularly sleeps in the back yard after eating a good deal of leaves and fallen apples."...Nature has been saving up all year for its grand finale..."-Lauren DeStefano
Dogwood Hill leading into downtown, with Quadra Island in the distance.In the meantime, Yum Yum is still sleeping on the back yard hill...zzzzzzzzzzOn the edge of town, the bridge that reaches over the Campbell river..."Listen! The wind is rising......and the air is wild with leaves,
we have had our summer evenings......now for October eves!" -Humbert Wolfe
Heading down the main street of Dogwood, leading to Dogwood Hill...."Is this not a true autumn day? Just the still melancholy that I love, that makes life and nature harmonize......the trees are putting on the hectic or the pallid hues of decay and begin to strew on the ground..."-George Eliot
Oh look, Yum Yum has woken up from his 6 hour nap. He's eating leftover apples that fell from the compost basin....Mr. Spencer at the window with Rona shadowing him. ....and Little Marshmallow on his new perch, looking for the older cats. Yum Yum seems to like the cats and the cats....well, I wonder if they think the deer is just a VERY BIG cat.At the end of Dogwood Road, Quadra Island Ferry, ready for passengers.The actual Campbell River .... "And I rose in rainy autumn, and walked abroad in a shower of all my days." -Dylan Thomas
