A windy weekend it was…
when I was worried for the leaves… I knew they would be gone in the morning! I’ll have to wait for almost a year to experience the same colours… These pictures are from my backyard – The red leaves of the emperor maple have turned into such beautiful shades of pink! Loving it…
Actually spent the weekend admiring the last colours of fall and raking the leaves in the yard and keeping them ready for yard waste clearance…
The pandemic is still on. We had some neighbouring regions moving into red zone here in Toronto – and some planned get togethers cancelled. Guess being healthy and alive is a good enough reason to be happy and smile about during these uncertain times!
Happy Monday!

Fabulous colours. We are thinking of getting an Acer for our garden, they’re beautiful trees.
