This cherry tree is at the end of the trail at Dry Falls. Dressed in its autumn finest with Dry Falls as a backdrop, well, that's pretty sweet to me. There are still a few trees here in Durham that look like this, though I would imagine all the fall color around Highway 64 near Highlands where this was taken is long gone. It's quite cold today, which is the way it should be, something to get us into the mood of Christmas. I've got what smells like will be a wonderful Irish beef stew in the Crockpot... just right for a day like today, and I'm working on some other recipes for coming events, but there's also time for sorting images from this fall. I can hear you now, "That was a whole 'nother season ago, Mike!" I know, I know, yet Christmas is as good a time for reminiscing as any, isn't it? I hope it's a sweet time for you, too, this year. Let's get to it with cheer!
