Three days ago Michel and I were sitting outside saying "It doesn't even look like fall. The leaves on the trees are still green"... Then all of a sudden yesterday "BAM!" Its Fall! 
The trees across the creek are beautiful. Reds and yellows. There is so much beauty in nature but fall is especially awesome!
Our yard looks like fall for the most part. We have been busy putting the plants to bed for the winter. But we still have some blooms out there.
Someone needs to tell my roses that summer is over. They look better now than they did all year. But we had such a hot, dry summer I think they are just enjoying the coolness that we have going on now.
A month from now we will be heading south again. Leaving our place here on the creek is always bittersweet. Hate to leave, but that makes coming back extra special.
Life is good - thanks for reading!
