We got more ice on Saturday night.  It was melting fast by Sunday afternoon.

My wife found a few ringneck snakes underneath a rock in our backyard.  According to my amphibians and reptiles field guide, ringneck snakes discharge musk and thrash about when captured, but rarely bite.  We did not handle the snakes.

This photo was taken along our road.  Tulip tree leaves turn yellow in fall.

My wife and I hiked the Harris Hollow Trail in Shenandoah National Park on Friday.  The bright fall color of this maple tree stood out along the trail.

This maple tree is beginning to turn fall colors.  I took this shot while attending the Virginia Hot Air Balloon and Wine Festival.
