longest autumn ever

Today it was 45 degrees outside. On December 18. In Minneapolis. Sigh.So yeah, it's looking like a brown Christmas for us, with no snow in the forecast. This afternoon, we decided to throw on our *jackets* and take the dogs for a walk, since it was so "nice" out. It was on this walk that I noticed these lovely... plants? grasses? I'm not sure what they are, but they sure are lovely when dead, eh?
