Full On Autumn

 I returned from a much needed week away to full-on autumn in our garden. Having almost missed it (the autumn wind and rain storm took out a lot), it was joyful to be among my familiars doing their dressed up best to impress. Every year is a little different, the previous season's water amounts, temperature and winds all play a part in what, if any, autumn color is on display. I consider myself lucky if we get any and this year, though many trees are becoming bare, does not disappoint. Here are a few images of Chickadee Gardens in autumn. Standing in the center of the veggie garden looking towards the west there is a variety of orange and warm colors. Calendulas are going strong all over the place and a few late-season pumpkins add to the scene.
