Last weekend was Thanksgiving weekend in Canada, and it was a glorious weekend for walking along our usual routes. Many leaves had fallen due to recent wind and rain events, and our walks were a feast for the senses. The crunch of the leaves, the fresh smells of the earth and the vegetation, the feel of the sun warming up our bodies – it was everything to be expected from October walks in the woods.





I’m linking up this post with Dawn’s for her 2024 Walktober.
We hope you are having a great weekend wherever you are, and that you are able to enjoy being outside.
Rock on,
The WB
Bowser’s certainly having fun
Fun is his middle name! Thanks, Sheree
Bowser…. autumn becomes you.

But ooh! That mushroom is fabulous.
Not seeing as many mushrooms as last year but they are indeed fabulous! Thanks, Rivergirl
I’m still amazed by those mushrooms!!! Bowser looks like he’s having just as much fun with all the October sights, sounds & smells
Me too! The mushrooms I come across blow me away. Bowser always knows how to have a good time! Thanks, Sharon
Bowser’s halter matched the leaves!
He is definitely an Autumn
. Thanks, Kate 
Penny is a pretty girl but she just doesn’t have the “it” factor The Bowz has!


You just might be a little prejudiced there, Bobi
. Thanks 
Bowser surveying his kingdom, a kingdom in which he blends. Cute, cute.
That dog really knows how to accessorize! Thanks, Ally
Those mushrooms!

And of course, Bowser!
Yes! And yes! Thanks, Kari
Gorgeous mushroom! Do you know what type that is? Never seen one before.
I believe it is called Fly Agaric. Thanks, Luisa
Hi, Deb and Bowswer – I love how this post is colour-coordinated! The leaves, the mushrooms and even Bowser’s harness all match in colour. Very cool! <3
Like I said to Ally Bean, this is a dog who knows how to accessorize and coordinate
. Thank you, my friend 
Beautiful weekend, beautiful pics!


Thank you, Jane
Wowser! What a beautiful Walktober you had! The picture of your little guy in all the leaves is sooooooo cute!! Thanks for playing Walktober with all of us!
Thank you, Dawn
. And thanks for hosting this fun event!
I just love the phrase: Walktober!
Bowser looks like he matches the fall colors perfectly. The mushroom IS a piece of art!
Bowser is killing it, isn’t he? All he needs now is a cask of pumpkin spice something-or-other attached to his collar like some kind of millenial St. Bernard
. Thanks, Suz 
Who do you suppose took a bite out of that great mushroom? I hope it wasn’t Bowser.
I often see these mushrooms with what looks like a bite taken out of them. I hope that it’s not the case, as they are supposed to be somewhat toxic (to humans, at least). As in: they won’t kill you but you might wish you were dead after eating them. No, Bowser is completely uninterested in fungi (thankfully!). Thanks, Jean
Enjoyed your Walktober pictures, especially ‘Bowser across from the roots of the Magic Tree.’ What a lovely scene!
Thank you very much, Barbara
I’m over here from Dawn’s Walktober roundup. Golly, what a cutie Bowser is! His harness matches those Fall-colored leaves perfectly. Does he hold you to the one photo one treat rule too?!?
At least one treat per pose!
Thanks, Debbie
