Nice stroll along Dry Creek Trail in the rain and fog. Had the entire trail to myself, temps in the low 50s, upper 40s. Most of the fall color has passed and the ground is covered in a patchwork of orange and yellow leaves. Took my time following the trail- had no real destination or objective, so I just took it slow. Turned back where the trail crosses the creek (which after all the heavy rains was flowing very heavy). Lots of mushrooms and fungi along the way, even found enough late-season Chantrelles for several meals, just in time for Thanksgiving.
