Finally, Autumn Color
Finally, some Fall color! Not as much as in the past, but pretty just the same.
In the middle picture, notice the black leaves. I'm not sure what tree this is; all I've seen tend to be small. Perhaps it is due to the above-average amount of rain we had this year.
Tree color depends on amount of daylight, temperature, and rainfall.
We will enjoy it while it lasts. We had the leaves blown off our mile-long asphalt lane, but it will have to be done again--in November, when all the leaves are off the trees!

Badly, Sadly Neglected
.jpg)
Hello, Friends,
This Blog has been sadly, badly neglected--and I am the guilty person with no real good excuse.
But I've been missing it and the writing, so I'm back and hopefully will do a better job. Perhaps I'll not post every day but several times a week, anyway.
One weak excuse I offer is that I became a member of Facebook, and I spent lots of time exploring it. Pretty often, however, I do check what members of my family have to say.
Another weak excuse is that I ran out of appropriate pictures to add, so now I've decided to add some from my design collection.
So, only one comment about today's photo's subject matter. And that's the "leafpeepers" are likely to be disappointed this year since the tree color is really drab so far. The woods should be alight with color this week. I understand that Autumn color depends on light, temperature, and amount of rain. Well, we had the same amount of light that we always do except we had a lot of cloudy days, we had cooler than usual temps, and we had 2 inches above the annual average for rainfall. So, go figure...
See you tomorrow. Mimi
