Autumn leaves

Other signs of autumn, besides the weather, around our hamlet are the changing leaves. Only a few trees are turning yellow so far; there's still a lot of green around. The vineyards are also beginning their change. Soon they will be filled with vibrant reds and yellows before changing over to brown.

Grape vines putting on a show.

We had rain over night, and it looks like it may continue into the day. The weather system is spinning right over us, according to the radar image. I won't get any grass or log cutting done today.

    Ken says you've got the cold from him...
    so...
    Light the wood fire...
    pull up a couple of chairs real close...
    turn on some music...
    and cuddle...
    a glass or two of thick, fruity red!

  3. I guess in another month or so, we'll start seeing some deciduous trees dropping their leaves. Right now, still sunbathing and swimming.

    At least you get a little break from you lumberjack duties.
