Now that the clocks have changed, we’re finding that we need to remind ourselves to get out early otherwise, before we know it, it’s dark. This morning we did just that and went to nearby Horton Woods for a stomp. It was a popular choice but as usual, once we’d left the parking lot, we mostly had the place to ourselves. There were some very intriguing bird and animal calls that we didn’t have the skills to identify, but we did enjoy watching a red squirrel refuse to be put off his meal by our presence. I guess there’s no time to lose in putting on those ounces for winter.
The continuing stories of a British family exiled (by choice) in the US and finding themselves in southern Maine.
