November brought snow and transformed the landscape even more than the fallen leaves. I was able to get out and spend time with the first of the snow as it fell. I enjoyed this opportunity at the time, but I really began to appreciate it more in the coming months when more snow fell and winter more fully settled into place. It somehow gave me a sense of belonging within it all. Maybe "connection" is a better word for it. There's just something special about spending time with the changing seasons and seeing nature in as many of its moods as possible. Keeps me watching for what might spring out next--maybe that's why I like it.
So like with my previous October 2023 Debrief, this video is a collection of footage that I gathered during some of my wandering during the month of November. I'll provide links for those individual videos below in case you want to catch up or watch the "extended cut."
