Such an amazing Fall we are having!! Still no rain, lots of sun and mild temps!! We must be living right in Seattle!! But the colors are beginning to show, the leaves are turning! Lots of beauty to enjoy, but not enough to take many photos of, so in the meantime it's back to last year! But soon -- I'm sure!!

Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.  Albert Camus
How beautifully leaves grow old.  How full of light and color are their last days.  John Burroughs

Such lovely shots from last year Sylvia, I'm sure you will soon be shooting the like for this year.

Oh I'm so jealous! I wish I could spend autumn up in the PNW. I'll have to wait until I'm retired! It's been hovering around 100 degrees here for the last few days. Ugh!

My part of the world seems to be turning brown rather than golden, not enough precipitation this year.

Looks as if autumn has moved into your part of the world ! Here it's still green it only starts slowly (I wish I could keep the green leaves !)

Penelope Postcards said...

From Seattle to Vancouver in BC the weather has been fantastic. If the sunsets and leaves look as great as they did last year in your photos, we’re in for a great fall this year, too!

Wishing you a sunny week. :)

Love the fall colours. Our trees are starting to lose their leaves, but skipping the colour change. Maybe the hot sunny weather has them a bit confused. - Margy

Love that quote by Camus. Isn't that so true!

What Can I Say?

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
