While August and early September often bring heat waves in more temperate parts of the country, here in the North late summer is slipping rapidly into fall – gold patches in the trees, the last of the ripe berries, a crisp dead-leaf smell in the air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Found some skunk currants, a.k.a. swamp gooseberry, growing along the creek.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Rogue Myths<\/a> and Echo City<\/a> are cranking quietly along. I’m donating half the proceeds from the first two months of Rogue Myths<\/em>, which comes out to about $210, to a couple of charities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope that you and yours are safe and healthy, as this most difficult of years heads into Northern Hemisphere fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
