September Perfection

This afternoon was pure perfection.  After dropping off Janet at the library where she is volunteering, I set off along a quiet country road on a September afternoon.  The wonderful autumn ripe smell, the crickets, the occasional rustling of the leaves in the wind, and a brief moment of solitude.  

The Wilmot Public Library in Wilmot Center.  Tea, comfortable rocking chairs by the windows, and all the latest books.

North Wilmot Road, where I saw 5 cars all afternoon

The rest of Wilmot Center, a few houses and the church.

I don't know if I love fall because of the asters, or if I love asters because they come with fall.  New England Asters are at the top of the list

      Roadside plants

Blue-stem Goldenrod

In a wet area, Goldthread

No shortage of woodland streams
this year.

It is New Hampshire, so there are walls

Big tree, little tree

Cute little demons

The rain has brought out the efts

And the mushrooms

More roadside colors

Another goldenrod.
