Won’t be long, now, Terri. I can hear lady Autumn knocking on the door. Goodbye heat and humidity – hello, warm days and cool nights.

Love that sentiment, Hugh! Temps expected to be 100F today, nights about 59-60F… enough!

Yikes, thank goodness we only got to 90f this summer in Swansea, Teri. And that was only for a couple of days. We’re back to the mid-70s now, and upper 50s at night. Perfect for a good night’s sleep.

there is a tree I know of that for whatever reason begins to loose its leaves consistently in July each year. Mother Natures dandruff.

Thanks, Donna! I took that pic in late November 2019 in Sacramento. Fall comes a lot later there, not so here, as you probably know. 🙂

Beautiful leaves Terri. I’m hoping for autumn to come fast. We had 100F yesterday.

You too. Today should be the last 90s for awhile (hopefully). Now we have smog still air and smoke. Yuck.

Autumn isn’t quite the same now that we live in Arizona, but it certainly will be a welcome respite from the heat! We’re in southern California now for a family visit and the heat has evidently followed us here, although only in the 80’s during the upcoming week (and with humidity) as opposed to the 110+ the Phoenix area will “enjoy.” I do miss the fall leaves so thanks for a lovely reminder of them.

Thank you Janet! The heat is on in the entire west coast and south west. I know what you mean about the heat following you. We hit 101 today in Spokane area! Better next week. Enjoy your visit 😀

Hot here today and a warm Labor Day ahead. Back to low 80s next week. Losing daylight too. Sigh.

I know, it means winter is close by. I’m still used to long drawn out autumn’s in Northern California. Here in Spokane,.WA they can be fleeting!

I was out and about this morning, visiting a few stores. It was weird seeing all the fall decorations for sale, when it’s so warm outside. I am looking forward to cooler days… but it will be a while.

Especially in SD, Janis. Seems like autumn hits there around late November. I already spied a couple of yellow leaves on some trees today! After a beautiful fall in Sacramento, with the peak usually between Vets Day and Thanksgiving, we’d visit SD at Christmas and the Liquid Amber trees were in their fall glory.

Love the colours on your photo. If only they would stay like that until late November when it snows but likely we will have wind and snow by mid October and the colour will be gone. Bernie

Thank you, Bernie. Autumn can fall fast once the first frost comes. Hopefully ours waits until late November!

Beautiful colors and reflections Terri and you picked a perfect quote to go with the images. Fall is my favorite season, even though it is the prelude to Winter, my least-favorite season.

Thank you, Linda! It’s my favorite too, and our winters are still somewhat of a novelty for this ex Cali girl. I enjoy the snow so I can snow shoe, driving in it not so much.

I have lived in Michigan for 56 years but because I walked to the end of the street and got the bus for 30 years to go to work and now have worked from home the last 11 years, it has made me even more of a Winter Weenie than I was when I had to drive to school.
