Vee's October Note Card Party

I didn't think this post was going to happen this month. 

In fact, I even told Vee last evening 

as I checked in on her after hearing of 

an earthquake in her part of the Country

 that it probably wasn't going to happen. 

 But, you know, this party is just too fun. 

I think it has to do with the fact that

 they have to come from prior posts. 

 It is so enjoyable to scroll back and remember 

where we have been and what we have come through. 

I really need to get back out there

 and begin taking photos again. 

 I had to go pretty far back for these.

  It just seems that if the conditions are right 

I don't have either the camera or the time. 

 I'm truly tempted to just make it a priority 

and go get me some amazing Autumn views. 

 Last evening as I headed out to meet Chelsea for dinner 

and then pick up Jonathan after his 12 hour work day, 

I was mentally drooling over several views

because the sun was setting and the 

color temperatures were just delightful.  

The leaves are finally beginning to turn here 

and while it is not as impressive

 as it has been in years past 

there is still more beauty 

than you can shake a stick at.

For now, though, the theme is pink.  

Pink and green...These are some of my favorite photos.  

All but one taken at our home.   

In our own flower beds or in the case of the bouquet,

 flowers from our gardens.

This next photo was taken at Longwood Gardens

and I thought this was a beautiful way to display 

this gorgeous plant.

Thanks for visiting.  

I hope you'll come back soon to see 

if I follow through on my plans 

to get out there and photograph 

Autumn landscapes and trees.

To see a very impressive list of posts

just head on over to A Haven for Vee

and check out this Note Card Party.
