The reason is obvious. Leaves fall, at least here in the temperate climate that comprises most of the US and Europe, where most of our customs came from originally.
But we move on.
Today Tom had his yard watering system flushed, ready to overwinter.
Fall is the time when the Sounders soccer season draws to a close. Last night we were at the stadium for the first playoff match, which ended in a hard fought 0-0 tie. They play next Thursday near Salt Lake City. We'll be watching that one from the comfort of our recliners. No rain ponchos needed.
Today we attended the Grand kids' soccer matches, as the rain held off. It was another opportunity to get out and enjoy the beauty of fall.
what fun geysers...we leave our system on all winter as it is short and not too frigid!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful header!
ReplyDeleteI love your header, Linda. That yard is beautiful but it must be quite a task to maintain it all. Between you and Tom, you have created a stunning place.
ReplyDeleteI never tire of seeing the pictures of your yard. What a lot of effort you both put into creating a beautiful life. And how worth it all.
ReplyDeleteIndia does not have Daylight Savings Time. It seems you have carved a nice life for yourseelf, Linda. I am enjoying my trip to northern India now.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to have this reminder about the Autumn fall back. I have to remember this whenever we call the mainland since Hawaii does not change its time. Gorgeous photos, Linda! You are definitely ready for winter.
ReplyDeleteI love the fall colors. They seem especially vibrant this year. Great pictures!
