Up close and far away, the transformation from summer to fall is incredible here in my little corner of the world; the last hurrah before the bleakness of winter sets in. This was the amazing view from our front porch this morning just as the fog began to lift. Typical autumn mornings are cold here and often shrouded in a heavy mist that usually obscures all visibility. Eventually, as it melts away, it reveals so much color drama that one is quite willing to stand outside shivering--as I sometimes do--waiting for that golden moment when the sun breaks through and highlights the landscape. It's really quite thrilling.
Beautiful picture. I wrote all this a minute ago but don't know where it went. Think of you often as I use the little sewing basket I bought from you all the time. sits right by my chair. I just finished several small embroidered sachets, posted pictures on my blog. I see I'm under your favorites, maybe you can see them from there. My info below doesn't seem to work for some reason. Happy Fall.

Yes, I did see them and thought they were really sweet, and would have left a comment, but I don't have a google account which is required to do so.
Happy to know you are enjoying the little sewing basket and the change of seasons. I am looking forward to spending time inside stitching again too.

Your photographs have captured so much, the essence of autumn, Vicki. I love the last photo. A "ta dah!" moment from Mother Nature, indeed.
Our mornings have been much the same, but I don't have your lovely view. I do have the park across the street though, which is filled with very old elms and they turn a beautiful golden yellow. Alas, the one directly across from my home was removed this summer. I miss it very much. I sure do love this time of year.

Oh, I wish I was there to see it! We don't get so much fall here in California. Lucky you.

But you have all the good weather! :o) It's raining and cold here today, but still very colorful. It never lasts long enough for me!
