The colors of Autumn are here and fading fast. They were not nearly as vibrant as some years, as we haven’t had a frost, but they are pretty none the less.
This is the view from our house, which is nice, because today my eyes were bothering me and I didn’t feel like going out for a drive, but I did feel like enjoying the colors.
There are just a few apple trees left with apples, but the other fruit trees are bare, and their leaves are changing color to mostly a yellow color. A good wind will knock them down.
We have had a lot of apples, but this year was our biggest ever harvest for butternut squash! We had over 40 of them! For a woman who has been accused of having a black thumb and not being able to grow anything, thing years garden was my best ever!
I’ve noticed that Autumn has been mentioned in so many of my posts. I think, perhaps that is due to the fact that our Autumn has been so long.
What is your favorite part of Autumn?
What a beautiful view you have ! Looks like eternal holidays !
Colors are pretty! We have mostly dull rust colors here. I think the rain and hurricane did not help. Love YOU, Mel
The colors are beautiful! We had a frost here in AR a couple of days ago. They say the dry summer we had is going to mess up the leaves changing as pretty as it normally does-boo!
Good heavens. If this is a bad year for leaves, I wonder what it looks like in a good year!! It really looks fabulous to me. :-)s
Wow! What a view! I didn´t know you could see the lake from your house. You are very lucky. The colors are stunning.
Any your black thumb sure changed into a green one!
Your view is spectacular!
Autumn is my favorite and I talk about it a lot too. Our colors are not quite as vibrant either, I’m sure due to all the rain we’ve had. Still beautiful though! Your squash look fabulous-congratulations on turning your black thumb green : )
my favorite part of autumn has to be the colors…and the fall harvest!
