November Surprise


The other day, a couple of days before Thanksgiving , I was in the process of making a bunch of little braciole for part of them coming home for what we call a "big bowl" the night before before Thanksgiving.

This all started when the first one of the first bunch went off to college and came home for the first time back somewhere in the early seventies. Its been going on for a long time and has more or less matured and is now getting old.

I happened to go out back for a breath---it was warmish after what has been a cold fall--and I saw this little bud atop our sort of decrepit and unkempt ancient rose bush, you know the one. I grabbed my little camera and took this picture. I didn't do so well. I don't take many little pictures anymore and I guess I didn't touch all the right buttons, so I tried again and got this one. Maybe a little better I thought.

But then again...
