Autumn Days...16º

Cold nights, sunny days, have been the norm for the last week...We even took a short walk yesterday afternoon, before the sun disappeared behind the mountains...The trees have shed most of their leaves, awaiting the first big snowfall...Rumor has it, that we are in for a mild winter...Time will tell.

When we have weather like this, I seem to always be waiting for the other shoe to drop...Wallowa County is known for its crazy wind storms...I can remember a Veterans Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas time, and a February storm, that raised havoc in the County.

The following photos were taken in November 2007, it was a rainy night, with wind gusts, that ripped a shed apart in our back yard and also tore the roof off of the neighbors carport and sailed it into our pasture...For some reason it is the only one that I took photos of...I'm not usually into doom and gloom but these sunny days make me wonder what Mother Nature has in store for us this winter...Hugs To All...OWAV:)
