Autumn is my favorite time in the mountains. The crowds are gone, and while the nights are chilly, the days are cool and sunny - perfect for hiking. The leaves are changing and there's snow on the mountaintops. Here, Glacier Way Trail in Tahoe Donner, Truckee, CA.

Wrapping up a trip through Scotland and the Shetland Islands. This is The Knab, south of Lerwick, on the South Mainland. It was good to be out of the chaos for a bit.

St. Andrew's Cathedral in Inverness has a display of photos of the people of Gaza. This is to bring a human element to the war. Very effective.

Someone (who shall remain anonymous) has posted your stickers all over the Tahoe Donner trail system! They only posted them on man-made structures, like trail posts and maps. 😁
