Fall Rambles

The air is cool and damp this morning. The sky is overcast. On my morning walk with Merlin I thought I could smell caramels. It must have been the wet wood and browning leaves.

Walking is a refreshing experience in Maine because the landscape is always changing. With each season there is always something new to see and smell.

The fall colors are nearly gone on the trees; most are yellowish-brown now.

My first fall ramble photo is from Pumpkinfest, held locally in Damariscotta. It is growing in popularity and attendance numbers. This year it was reported that there was probably a record attendance. I stayed away until the following week when we could ramble freely at Merlin's (dog) pulling pace. Here is my favorite boy with my favorite pumpkin this year--a simple penguin pumpkin.
