Imminent Fall

Fll2

Last Sunday I passed 200 bicycling miles for the summer as I went 26 miles on the Great River Trail in Wisconsin again. This time I was looking for signs of fall. I found them.

I wanted to call the above picture, No Refills, as it was clear that the berries are disappearing from the bushes. And once they're gone, sorry, no more until next year.

Below the red was still subtle, hidden still by the brightness of the green. But it won't be long. Already the green was looking tired and worn out, ready for the colors to make their last fling.

Perhaps this is the best sign of fall... those trees and the ever so slightly dimmer sunshine and that tired green. But what day for a ride!!!!
