The end of the year was…complicated, mostly due to my father nearly dying of a heart attack. (He’s doing quite well now.) I wasn’t really a functional human being, but I did get my camera out a couple times.
November:
The first of the winter succulents to bloom: a species of Madagascar aloe.
Various wild mushrooms/toadstools growing out in the field.
December:
The return of the mushrooms/toadstools, a larger species this time, thoroughly dusted with frost.
Fallen cottonwood leaves got similar embellishments.
