FIRST DAYS OF AUTUMN 2012

 These are the first days of autumn here in the Southern Appalachian Mountains. I like watching each leaf as it changes and floats the air currents down.  From my deck, it is heavenly.

This is a lovely photo of your flowers and the leaf. You are so fortuante to have such a nice place to sit on the front porch and watch autumn march into our mountains.
