Walnut Avenue Bridge in Roanoke, VA, November 2021

I am not an excellent photographer by any means, but I’d like to think I got lucky with this set of pictures.  I set out for a nice, long walk on a temperate Autumn Friday — and decided to cross Walnut Avenue Bridge for the first time.  I was lucky, because the setting sun seemed to set Mill Mountain’s trees ablaze.  (And I didn’t even realize I’d be treated to a great view of the Roanoke River beside it.)  What a nice and unexpected turn of events at the end of a November day.

I’m sorry, as always, for the shaky-cam! (The bridge was shaking too.)

Proud dog!

A good friend of mine, writer and editor Tara Bann, allowed me to make this meme of her peppy little doggo.

Look at that face.  What a grin!

spilled cinnamon flakes upon
whipped cream in coffee.

People say this is a bad joke, but I Stan behind it.
