The October colors have come to full display. Russet, ochre, lime, and amber.
Misty morning fog hangs above the hills and sprinkles the windshield opaque, like a stained glass window, painted by nature, colored by time.
Speeding through the fog and rain. Empty road. Full horizon, hilltops multipling to the edge of sight. A half forgotten driveway twists among the tilting weeds to the left and disappears into the trees.
The car pauses– indecisive– beside the Apple orchard, forgotten trees gone wild and contorted; their boughs drip drops of rain onto the ground.
What lies at the end of the drive? A mystery? Or a memory?
I used to live in Michigan and always loved the apple cider and donuts they had this time of year.🍎

Apple cider and donuts are definitely a good perk come fall! They are some of my favorites for sure 😊
