Just a routine trip to the local supermarket... (on foot, on the grounds that walking whilst carrying two medium heavy bags is good exercise!) On the way out, I was stopped in my tracks by this single low-hanging branch of a small tree that had already turned a bright orange-red. All the rest of its foliage was still green. A harbinger of autumn, a promise of things to come.
Here in the mountains, where I am currently spending a hiking holiday, autumn is fast advancing. Already the woods are full of mushroom, and sunset is just before 7:00 pm.
