Gnome Village?
Turf roofs
The remnants of a pile of cut logs caught our eyes today. Looks very much as if the pile has been remodelled for gnomes with rows of moss and turf-roofed houses and lanes between them.

The Leaves are Down
A week ago these trees were heavy with gloriously golden leaves. Last night the temperature dropped to -2C and this morning all the leaves are on the ground. There was ice in puddles. Snow can’t be far away.
