There were a number of reasons my parents came over from the UK at the time they did, and one of the minor ones was certainly that they might get a chance to see some of the fall colors, that is, autumn colours.
Unfortunately, they didn't count on our weather this year. Now, we did have a freeze last week: two or three in fact. And when I say freeze, I do mean that it reached 31 F. Finally the maple tree in our front yard has started to turn. Unfortunately for the tree, it is in for a surprise. We are getting back up into the mid-to-upper 70's next week. Still, for now, some nice beginnings of turnings of leaves.
Yours, as confused as the trees,

Isn't this just crazy? Up until a week and a half ago, I had not turned on my furnace. Very odd for my neck of the woods. I hope this doesn't mean mountains of snow...
Hello from Michelle.
Wow, a maple tree in the garden! Sounds fab. I love the colour maple leaves go in the autumn, they're stunning.
The weather certainly seems to be going up and down like a see-saw there. Strange. Is it normally like that?
The fall trees are certainly a highlight.
Michele sent me here.
This year we are having early winters. Colder mornings and nights.
Blame it on Global warming?
Michele sent me here to discuss the weather!
Beautiful photos :)
Michele sent me and said "Hello!".
Weather is just as screwy here in Los Angeles.... 80* one week, 67* the next! Love the leafy color.
Michele says hello!

Not to toot my own horn, but I've got several good pictures on my blog. Autumn, of course. Stop by.
