    Such beautiful colors, Bette! Our leaves are falling without changing color! Two weeks of drenching rain will do that I guess!

      The colors here are at peek today… I did get a few more pix before the rain and wind settled in for the afternoon. Sunshine tomorrow, it should be a delightful day. Rain or shine, enjoy yours to the fullest! Hugs, Bette

    Yes… we’ve also had a magnificent autumn after a fairly dreadful summer. I need to get out there and take some pics before the first big storm strips all the leaves. Thank you for sharing the beauty in your corner of the world.

      Thanks for stopping by, Sarah. This glorious season of leaf peeping will leave our little corner of the world far too soon… But, thankfully, it will return. Have a wonderful week, my friend! 🙂

    Nature’s colors are just spectacular, Bette, but Autumn comes to you much sooner than for us folks in NY. But I hear those acorns pinging on my deck, a sure sign that autumn is on its way. Stay warm!

      Hi, Mary. We lived in Ft. Belvoir, VA from 2001-2005. Enjoyed the mild winters but missed the New England autumn displays. Have a wonderful week! 🙂

    So gorgeous. I think you live in the garden of Eden. I’ve got my adoption papers all ready to sign lol.

      You’re so funny, Micki… The ‘grass’ always looks greener and leaves so much brighter from afar. Plenty of nature to enjoy, but the place is a shopper’s nightmare. Me, I’ll take nature… Thanks for always making me smile. Hope you’re feeling better and that Kim is too. Hugs! ❤
