Colors Galore

Good Morning, Happy Monday.

leaves 004

In my extra hour this weekend, I took some time to appreciate the colors. I am in total awe of how radiant the woods near my house look.  The red, orange and yellow leaves contrast so spectacularly against the green pine trees.

One day last week when I was busily rushing home I just look out the car window to see all these colors and all this beauty.

It will be gone soon.  Here’s out pond, many of the leaves have already fallen, reveling the grey branches beneath. leaves 001

Today I strive to rake the biggest, funnest leaf pile ever!  And will post back here about it just as soon as possible.

    SO beautiful! Sometimes I wish that I lived in a place with more “distinct” seasons.

    Usually, however, I’m grateful to live in the desert. The endless sunshine suits me well. :)
