Stony Point, Albemarle County, Va. Oil on paper, 16 x 20.

Longtime readers – i.e., anyone who’s been around since we started in April – will know that we looked out for, and never found, blackberry winter, but did have a spell of huckleberry autumn and then a winter of the wild rose. Today, with the daytime temperature settling at 63°F, we had what we might call Winter at Wimbledon.

Barbecuing would have been good to do, just to warm up.
