Fall Colors on Drinking Horse Mountain

We walked up the new Drinking Horse Mountain trail yesterday. It was a clear, breezy, cool day, and the trees and ground foliage were yellow, red, orange, and an almost translucent orangey-gold. I love fall!

I found a quote today that caught my attention, and that I think appropriate for the memory of our walk. From a Nintendo game, no less!


"Fiery colors begin their yearly conquest of the hills, propelled by the autumn winds. Fall is the artist."
- Takayuki Ikkaku, Arisa Hosaka, and Toshihiro Kawabata, Animal Crossing: Wide World, 2005
