Roan Mountains, North Carolina 10/22/2016.

Nice one! It looks cold, cold, cold.

Nice one! It looks cold, cold, cold.

I love hoarfrost, but yes, cold for down here. Twenties and gusts up to 45 mph.

The harvest should be in by now but the weather hasn't been cooperating, too much rain and some snow.

Two views looking west from the reservoir at Kindersley, south-western Saskatchewan. A dreary prairie autumn scene sandwiched between early autumn with its colourful leaves and winter.

Two views of a buffalo rubbing stone (bison frequently wallow and rub against stones, trees and whatever else is available to relieve itching and perhaps sluff off excess hair - this stone would have been used when bison herds roamed freely across the prairies, so it's a historical artifact)

Not my usual rural shot, but rural nonetheless. Okanagan valley wine country, British Columbia.
