Hi everyone! Sorry we’ve been absent. There is no real excuse other than I, Cindy, have been working hard on a few crochet projects and have not had much blogging time because of it. You can’t hook and use the computer at the same time (at least I can’t). I need to find an eye control system so I can do both.
We have been enjoying some nice fall weather and our trees and shrubs are starting to put on a bit of a show. I thought I would share some views of our back yard that Charlie took earlier this week on a rainy day. (Be sure to click on the images to get a larger view)
The stewartia tree, right outside our back door, puts on a beautiful show every year and the hickory tree is a great backdrop for it.
Here is another view of those trees with some of the neighboring shrubs. I love the contrast of the dark burgundy leaves of the shrubs with the hickory tree.
The katsura tree really stands out this year. We don’t always get such beautiful color from it so this year is special.
Looking to the east a lot of trees and shrubs are changing color.
This Japanese maple is putting on a spectacular show and is complimented by the hydrangea and barberry.
Last but not least is another view of the katsura tree (my favorite thing in our yard) with the triflorum maple in the background to the left displaying its beautiful fall color.
I hope you enjoyed this view of our fall foliage. If we have some more nice color I will be sure to share with all of you.
Cindy your garden is bursting with glorious technicolor!!!
Thank you so much for sharing. We haven’t seen that much color here yet.
Hugs madi and Cecilia
We agree your garden is bursting with colour. How wonderful. Have a fabulous Friday.

Beautiful….sure do miss the Fall colors since we moved from Michigan to Florida! 😦
Wow! You have a really magnificent fall foliage scene right out your window! Beautiful.
What lovely color!!
Oh, the glory of fall colors!!! Our trees are very late in getting their fall color – lots are still all green. Sort of odd, maybe soon we will see some of that beauty you have there.

Great blog post… I love this time of year!
Beautiful! I hope you have been feeling well. Today has been pouring rain for me. I can’t wait to see some of your projects you have been working on. Sam
Wow Cindy! I am absolutely amazed!!! You have SUCH brighter colors and you are only a little ways away!! We have mostly yellows…very, very little red or orange. In fact, there is a lot of brown this year. Your yard should be a National Park!! I just LOVE it!! Happy Saturday! xo Jeanne, Chloe and LadyBug
Most of the leaves around here don’t change color so we really enjoyed seeing your fall foliage.
Walter, sorry about being AWOL last Tuesday. Mommy just finished doing the Tuiren Tuesday post so I will be back on my regularly scheduled day and even let Mommy take more pictures of me then usual to make up for my absence. ~Your girl, Tui
Oh we just loved the Katsura Tree, we had never seen one before.
Your colors are really beautiful, the colors are amazing — Mother Nature is quite the artist!
