Seasons change

 The seasons are definitely changing here.  We've been enjoying unseasonably warm temps, blue skies and pretty colors, but the last few days have been cold and today I saw the first snow coming down.  I'm not ready, but it's coming!

Here's a few photos to show how things are looking here.


Our hydrangea flowers are still hanging on, but they are brown, as are the few leaves on the plant.




The leaves on our oak trees are mostly down, and although Bob keeps blowing them, there are a bunch settled on the path next to our garage.





These grasses on a nearby roadside are all golden.



The cornfields are nearly all harvested.




The bright blue skies of summer have given way to gray skies and clouds.

Each season has its own type of beauty and I'm thankful for each.

  2. Everything is brown and gold. It has a beauty all it's own. Did you get much snow? It is supposed to be good for your trees and flowers to leave the leaves on them, or so I've heard.

  7. Very nice photos. Every time I thought I had raked enough of the leaves from my big oak tree, more would accumulate from somewhere and end up in an inconvenient to me spot:) Still, I love that oak tree.

  8. I love your photo's, Mari. I am still in shock that we're on the way to middle November. On top of that, my daughter turns 58 this month. Another reason for me to feel old. :)

  9. It had been very brown and bare here - but today a first real layer of snow on the ground. A lovely thin white blanket on everything. ;)

  13. I'm thankful for each too. Fall giving way to winter is poignant headed for panicky but we don't have too much to worry about here. So far all it's been is fickle! But today I had to turn the heat on in the house. Haaahaha xoxo

  14. Beautiful photos of your beautiful world, my friend. I am thankful for each season as well. We are getting cold weather this week. It will be nice to decorate the tree and listen to Christmas music to!

  15. Lovely pics, as always. Our clouds have been looking heavier, snowier, wintery-er lately too. And today we have that snow. We're supposed to get 1-3" over the next couple of days. Not a whole lot, and that's fine. Helps enhance the holiday vibes!

  17. It’s also changing here and the heater is on in the mornings. The leaves are falling, but it’s a nice time after all the heat we had.
