  1. 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

  3. 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!

    • 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! ❤
