Monday night was COLD!  Tuesday morning was FROSTY!

I now present: The First Wednesday Walk of December - (Photos Taken on a Frosty Tuesday Morning and a cold bright Tuesday Afternoon)

A cold foggy night (27F or colder) made for a pretty, sparkly, frosty morning.

Trees and brush alike were coated in frost.

While the valley was gloomy with fog, we had sunshine.

Later in the day the rose hips looked like nature's Christmas bouquet.

Our basic wild fern, the Sword Fern, looks good this time of year.

Our bridge over the Big Creek was littered with leaves and still frosty so I did not cross.

I loved the play of light on these small ferns high up on an Ash tree.

In the shade, the detritus of leaves, mushrooms, moss, and grass created an interesting tableau.

I love moss - can you tell?

We have one small patch of a sedge of some sort.

It too looks well this time of year.

Even without any rain for several days now, our small creek is burbling cheerfully along. 

I'm cold and it's time to go back inside.  I hope you enjoyed today's walk.
