We're not too far from the White Mountains -- but we're in the Connecticut River "Upper Valley", a lovely place all its own -- and I am, I have come to realize,
obsessed with autumn.

Like most things in New England, the "leaf peeper" part of autumn is
brief but intense. This weekend has been gorgeous.

Yesterday morning in the backyard.

And yesterday evening out front.
Finally...

Last night in the front yard. I was
looking for aurorae, but didn't see them.

It was still a lovely night.
