It's days like this that confirm that autumn is my favorite season! Cool, crisp sunshiney weather! Delicious!

In celebration, here are some pics taken in my front yard:

yellow butterfly bush, Japanese maple, and maple tree from front yard

I love our maple tree--the tree in the background, next to the street. You'll notice that one half of it is flaming orange and yellow, and the other half is green and just beginning to turn orange; this is because there are actually two trees growing squished together so they look like one!



This isn't the most well-composed shot, but it does give you a nice view of the maple tree:

Canna in the foreground, maple tree in the background; looking out from our house.

a better version of the previous shot!  Once again, cannas in front, maple in the back.  Ignore neighbor's house across the street.

Once again, the maple tree, this time with bonfire begonia in the foreground

red salvia, marigolds, and fallen leaves

I layer. Tank top for the drive home, lightweight sweater to keep my arms warm while at work, and getting out of the house at every opportunity or sleeping through the worst of the afternoon heat waves on the weekends. (My room suffers from bad air circulation, so the A/C does nothing. Sleep, however, fixes a myriad of problems.)

(I'll do my best not to. We may not have ice, but we do have craptastically thick fog (San Francisco has nothing on us; their fog blows out to sea) and lots of rain. I'll probably complain about that.)

California fall color is nice, but it pales in comparison to the color in Virginia where I went to college. The hill across the freeway from campus was covered in trees that looked like they caught fire. It was gorgeous. But if I remember to do it, I'll take pictures.
