The Golden Autumn in the Offing

In a few minutes the sun was shining this Sunday early evening. I threw up the window and managed to snap a photo. Isn't it incredibly beautiful when the fall knocks at the door? Now I'm back at the keyboard and the sun have embedded herself in the cuddly cloud-blanket again.

darkfoam said...

i love the beauty of fall. unfortunately my nose doesn't seem to like fall though .. sniffle ..
your trees are stunning. in a few weeks ours should be a similar hue.
i think you found your heart of gold where you live right now?

Little Lamb said...

Little Steak!?!! Not Lamb Chop?

ANNA-LYS said...

Foam
Yes, home is where my heart is,
sorry about Your nose, dear.

Lamb Steak
I mean:
garlic and rosemary marinated lamb steak with home-made pear chutney ... that's why I find You a tasty creature ;-p

darkfoam said...

Little Lamb said...

This is what I get for making friends with humans! :-)

Hate to be contrary, but I am dreading winter. The downtime, chopping wood, inside reading, outside walks in the coldchills.

But what goes around . . .

Nice photo, great tree.

Butterfly Mage said...

That was a very pretty picture :)

It was raining in Baltimore, so it was more of a day for blasting away slavers and raiders in Fallout 3.

ANNA-LYS said...

The closest tree
is a Pimpernöt
or Staphylea pinnata L.

Unknown said...

Is it autumn already? The bush 'Staph...' is rare in Sweden. Your place seems to be special.

ANNA-LYS said...

Foam
Bring the Lamb, bring the lamb! :-)


Little Steak
Can't help it - born human, always human :-)

ANNA-LYS said...

Goatman
Long time - No see
But You have been chopping wood I guess.
Same procedure here, but I love it, I don't have to pay for my work-out :-)


Butterfly Mage
We need those days too :-))

ANNA-LYS said...

My Pimpernöt/Pinnata is huge, so it is a tree. Pimpernöt/Pinnata was found in Skåne/Very very South Sweden by Linneus as early as year 1749. It is one of the three first imports :-)

Still, this is a special place :-)

September and Ocotober are wonderful in the part of Sweden where I live. November I just wanna get away somewhere else...

PJ van Zyl said...

something we don't get in South Africa... well not to the same extent as overseas

ANNA-LYS said...

Dianne
Sorry for the delay
my dog is having puppies
any time now :-D
The window view is my right side of the backyard, I will open more windows, when the sun allow it :-D
The Autumn is a lovely time
we Swedes has to tell this
20 times a day, to not get
into season depressions coz
we are aware of the dark time
coming up after this present beauty.

I don't think we live so far from each other except that I live by the west-coast, it is always warmer by the Mexican Gulf stream. (At least it use to be before BP changed everything.)


Pete
South Africa has You
and You are gold worth :-)

dianne said...
