Favorite season II

Fall in New Hampshire, our former residence, was punctuated by the brilliant foliage of the deciduous forests covering the state.  The following pictures were taken during a mountain bike ride in the fall:
Lake Shore in Auburn NH
Little Massabesic Lake Auburn NH
Now we live in the Chihuahuan Desert in Southern New Mexico.  Desert—-desolate, deserted, devoid of foliage and trees and rain——Wrong!!!


The following are pictures of beautiful crimson vegetation not far from the Mud Shack:
Red as far as you can see in this field
Another view of the same field
Ahhh, yes, New Mexico’s State Vegetable
Chile peppers still on the plant, drying and turning red.  Edible foliage, unlike those red maple leaves back east.  And as the autumn brings lower temperatures, the heat of the chiles warms the body and soul.
