It is Here...

 Fall has come to Michigan and it is just beautiful.

 The air had turned cooler and the leaves have started to turn.

 The most beautiful shades of orange, yellow, red and green.

 The squirrels are busy peeking into windows looking for food.

 Pinecones have started to fall and,

needless to say we have an overabundance of acorns. Last year we had very few.

 

 

Enjoy it while we can, colder weather and snow will be here before we know it.

Summer Flowers

 Aren't we lucky, to have all these beautiful flowers?

 I think I'd be lost without flowers.

 They are so very fragrant.

 A lovely piece of nature.

 Mother nature steps in every once in a while and makes an abrupt change.

I was out for a walk the other day and look what I found...I knew it was coming but not so soon.
Fall is on it's way....

Colors of Michigan

 Can't forget about the mushrooms. Because of the season changing, the ground is acidic.

 Such an amazing array of color this year.

 The sky adds such contrast, and makes the colors stand out more.

 All of these photos were taken within a mile from my house.

 The leaves are starting to drop off the trees and soon everyone will be raking them into piles. Not my favorite fall thing to do!

Before I go down the road, I must say that Michigan is past peak and soon the weather will change again... Look out! Winter will be upon us soon. Get your coats, boots, hats and mittens out.

I hope that you enjoyed the tour.

The Last Week-end OF Summer

 I can't belive it. Fall will be upon us in a few days. Yes, it is true. This is the last week-end of summer.

 Summer went by us so very fast. Yes, it was so very hot.

Like other places, we could have used some very much needed rain.

 Looks like fall is slowly sneaking in making its big entrance... I am ready.

Fall In Michigan

No words can express the beauty in nature.

Last Sunset...

Well... Here it is, the last great sunset of late fall. We call it Indian Summer. This occurs in autumn. It is sunny, clear, warm weather, after the leaves have turned following a heavy frost, but before the first snowfall. Enjoy it while you can. The wonders of winter is on its way.
