Speechless Sundays - Fall Foliage

 

Living as one with nature really makes your awareness of change heightened. When we lived in the heart of the city, we were a bit more separated from the climate and changes Mother Nature sent our way than we are now. It is strikingly remarkable how quickly we have gone from summer to winter - with very little fall whatsoever!

The foliage is gorgeous but, it took a bit to change and then it seemed to happen overnight! While my photos of the closest color we can see are striking to us, they are not nearly as remarkable as the New England colors that George Souto shares with us each year! 

Happy Sunday everyone! Here's to a wonderful week ahead...

It really does, Kat Palmiotti - and thank you! I'm not a winter fan so, my 'boost-me-up' silver lining is telling myself that when winter rolls around, we are one step closer to spring!!

Oh, I do love that sound, Michael Jacobs! I was leaving a listing appointment last week and beneath those leaves was an acorn that rolled with me when I stepped on the leaf on top of it. I have no idea how I didn't fall but, thankfully I didn't!

I realized the older we get, how much more care we need to give to stepping on those leaves - something that never crossed our minds as younger adults!

Especially when the leaves become wet because of dew or rain.

YES!! 


And, that hill was ever so slight but, I'm sure that by the time I would have found myself at the end of the driveway, my skirt would have been over my head...a great place for it to hide the embarrassment! LOL

Hi Debe--We are getting anxious for the fall colors and they seem a bit dull around here. Nice picture!

Hi George Souto! We still don't have your brilliant yellows and reds but, I do believe you're right that the water helps the muted colors seem so much brighter!

I think the color is trending south, Kathy Streib! Your temperatures are still nice and warm, while we're experiencing deep fall cool temperatures. I'm already ready for spring!

Dear Debe,

Colors are getting pretty around here too. So shocked, that it has not been freezing yet. Still have my indoor plants out, because they do better there.

Debe Maxwell, CRS - Every fall leave holds beauty and an array of fall colors is always picture worthy. Your photograph is gorgeous. Your beautiful new property is filled with inspiration, hope, and good clean air. I am very happy for you and Ray. Although the season is changing, your lake still looks clear and inviting! May you have continued good luck with everything you own and how you choose to live.

The colors took a while to show up this year and the storms and wind are blowing them away ushering in winter.
