We have had a stretch of gorgeous, fall days. Temperatures have been in the low to mid 70's with low humidity and lots of sun. Leaves are beginning to change color and the sun is setting before 8:00 pm. Chipmunks and squirrels are busy gathering acorns and seeds.
What I read:
The Black Arrow by Robert Louis Stevenson
Reading now:
Fatal Fried Rice by Vivien Chien
Watching:
We are watching the fourth season of NYPD Blue.
Devil's Punchbowl
The sign says: "This unique and fragile rock feature was created by glacial forces and allows us to look back over 500 million years of geologic time. Please enjoy and respect one of our community's natural treasures."
This is located in Dunn County, Wisconsin. There is a much larger one in Oregon.
In order to enter the Devil's Punchbowl, you have to descend this set of stairs.
It was incredible to see trees growing out of the rock formation with their roots hanging over the side.

Have a good weekend!

Hi, Tee! We are having beautiful weather and doing our best to enjoy it while we can. I'm heading over to check out your post.
DeleteHi Gretchen! I love the photo of the Devils Punchbowl and envy your weather. It’s stormy and hot in North Florida now.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your nice comment on my blog xo
NYPD Blue was a pretty good show, we enjoyed it. I like your book selections too.
Hi, Tina! We are very fortunate to have had such nice weather when others have had storms and fires.
DeleteNYPD Blue does hold up well, we are enjoying it.
I loved NYPD Blue! Glad to see it's help up over time.
ReplyDeleteLove the nature photos. We're trying to take advantage of the fall weather here too, but it's been in the 80s this week, Crazy high for Ohio.
We watched some of NYPD Blue when it originally aired, but there was a lot we missed. It has been fun to watch it in order and it has held up well.
DeleteEnjoy your nice weather!
I've added Death in Castle Dark to my TBR and I think it's going to be a good read. Thanks for sharing all your lovely photos with us.
ReplyDeleteHave a good week!

DeleteHave a good week!
Thanks, Vicki! There are so many good shows to watch, but only so much time.
ReplyDeleteYour weather sounds wonderful. I read Death in Castle Dark and enjoyed it. I love Vivien Chien's series, but I'm behind. I need to get back to it. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteOur weather has been wonderful! We are trying to enjoy it while it lasts. I enjoy Vivien Chien's series, too. Have a good week!
DeleteYour descriptions of the weather you are experiencing sounds like the fall I've never seen personally, but I've always wanted to see.
ReplyDeleteRobert Louis Stevenson was the author my school was named after, so I felt compelled to read his books. What a great writer he was. I haven't read The Black Arrow yet, but I will look for it.
We love to visit nature preserves. Isn't the Devil's Punchbowl a unique and fascinating spot? Wow.
We are doing our best to enjoy this fall weather. We are not always blessed with it. Sometimes it goes from hot to cold with nothing in between.
DeleteRobert Louis Stevenson was a great writer. It has been many years since I have read Treasure Island and reading The Black Arrow made me want to go back and read it again.
The Devil's Punchbowl was so neat. I'm glad we were able to see it this fall.
