I love Fall!

Postby Ellie » Sat, 24 Oct 2009 09:17:56 GMT

It is so gorgeous here! The sky is gloomy, yes. But it's like a black and white photograph. All the brilliant reds and golds of the trees pop against the gloomy sky the same way a single red rose pops in a black and white photograph. It's beautiful! We are so blessed with mature trees here! And the squirrels! They're adorable. We finally have the wonderful problem of needing to rake leaves!

I hope you're enjoying these last days with the beautiful leaves. They won't be around much longer. A few of our trees have already dropped all their leaves.

OOOOH how wonderful !!! (I can visualize how gorgeous that would be!) For me it isn't just the sights, but the scent of Autumn that I adore too - I know with all those trees you are experiencing that to the max :D

I am so happy that you are living in your paradise :D Took a little time to get there, but you are now - How super!!

This has been a very good fall for foliage color, too. I've seen things color that normally drop their leaves without coloring. Get out and drive around if you have a chance!
This time, like all times, is a very good one, if we but know what to do with it. -Ralph Waldo Emerson, writer and philosopher (1803-1882)

Love that picture. The trouble with fall, we are approaching," no leaves, no sun, no swimming, no fun, November". And that"s the middle of fall and it is downhill from there. I imagine heaven as being stuck in June or September,Southern Ohio speaking. :) :?:

Oh, I couldn't disagree more! Soon we will have glistening ice on all the trees in our backyard and I think that's absolutely magical! And though fresh snow isn't fresh for very long, it is going to be beautiful for at least a little while. And the air somehow smells cleaner on a crisp winter day. I can't wait!
