A couple of weeks ago we were walking around Harvard Square, and came across this cemetery filled with old gravestones, some dating to the late 1600s. Most of them are in quite good shape, and are much more decorative than anything current.
On the day after Thanksgiving, we visited our kids in Western Massachusetts. We enjoyed another fine meal surrounded by evidence of the harvest: drying onions, peppers, corn, and radish pods. We took a walk and enjoyed the sunlight on the roadside weeds. We found decaying pumpkins in the woods and in the stream. We visited an abandoned mill site, and greeted the neighbor's cows before they headed in for the evening milking. It was a most enjoyable day.
This morning was quite spectacular if you enjoy seeing frost on things other than your windshield. Everything in the yard was covered with white sugary-looking crystals.
