BEAUTY ALL AROUND

Some of you have already enjoyed the beautiful colors of fall in other states, but here in Alabama we are just seeing the full beauty of the foliage. Yesterday I left work to go to the Post Office and this tree caught my eye. There were no cars behind me so I slowed down (and always have my camera in my purse) to make a picture. You can even see my side mirror at the bottom of the page. I told my husband this weekend that I am seeing beauty more and more these days and perhaps it's because I'm getting older. I drove by his parents old "home place" over the weekend while I was out and the drive along the road was absolutely beautiful with trees making a canopy across the entire road at places. If we would only take the time to enjoy the beauty that is right before us!!!
I plan to have pictures tomorrow of a project "make-over". I have had to wait for paint to dry before making a picture. Hopefully....I can show you tomorrow. Have a wonderful day and enjoy the beauty!

We have had some beautiful Fall colored trees and yesterday the wind roared like I haven't seen in a while and tons of those leaves are blanketing the ground and all over the patio out back.

Oh Sue, I never get tired of looking at the gorgeous colors of Fall. Here where I live in North Carolina I think the leaves are coming to their peak. I think it's important to stop and take time to enjoy the beauty.

It is amazing to me how you are just in the beginning of Fall and all the Fall colors and we here in Seattle are at the end ~ All the beautiful leaves have fallen from our trees and the rainy season has started.
Thanks for sharing the beautiful photo!

Such a pretty little tree. I never get tired of seeing fall colors. Most of our color is fading, but our neighbors planted a little tree 3 yrs. ago, and it is the last to change around here. It gets reddish/orange like that, and I can see it from my kitchen.
I always carry my camera with me too Sue. I'm afraid I'll miss something if I don't. hahahaha!
