I went in to town early today in the hope of getting some photos of the hot air balloons but unfortunately there were none. It is pretty windy today so I guess the Balloon Fiesta events stopped before I arrived. There really isn't much fall color here in NM but I found a little.

This is rabbitbrush in bloom - I've never found out why it has this name.



I'm not sure what this red stuff is.


DH is working on our woodpile. He gets a forest service permit and cuts down standing dead trees. We heat with wood and he says this is mainly Ponderosa pine. Frankly I can't even imagine making a fire as it is still hot here.



Well back to the baseball playoffs. I've watched 8 games in the last 3 days and I'm getting a huge amount of knitting done.
