It's pretty cold, but we've had a couple of great days and I enjoyed a brief visit to my old neighborhood and the harbor! It was great to see the mountains and the beaches! The rain returns today -- at least some showers, but I've had my fun for the week, so I'll share that with you as I wait for the rain. Have a beautiful week, laugh and giggle whenever you can and don't worry about tomorrow!

Happiness resides not in possessions and not in gold; the feeling of happiness dwells in the soul.

    Those foggy shots are much like what I woke to this morning. Visibility here was about 50feet.

    What an apt description of autumn … “the last, loveliest smile”. I particularly liked the last photo of empty benches overlooking the water and branches with only a few leaves left at the close of the season.

    Love the photo of the snow on the mountains, and the fog is so pretty when we don't have to commute 30 miles to work through it!

    Hi there - great set of shots. There is a song about Melbourne’s changeable weather called "Four Seasons in One Day" - while you shots are not four seasons in one post they do so a remarkable range!

    Splendid.

    I don't know when it rains here at the Red Sea once in a blue moon perhaps. Usually your weather looks like mine, except we don't have mountains, but here I forgot that winter is coming !
