...from one holiday to the next always seems to move way too quickly for me. We took some lovely walks this past weekend with our out of town guests & saw a lot of contrasting colors.
Although this pretty holly & the funny snowball of a plant below do look awfully Christmasy & I know there are quite a few people out there who are already decorating & getting ready for the next big holiday,
I am just not ready.
Maybe it is because in Charleston the leaves have only just started to turn into beautiful bright fall colors.
The golden Gingko tree above & the red Maple below are at their peek right now.
So it is hard for me not to want to fill my pockets with pretty autumn leaves to take home & enjoy.
I still want to linger just a while longer in the glory of fall & thanksgiving.
But last weekends holiday flowers are starting to fade....
...while last years Christmas cactus is almost in full bloom.
So I guess I had better get with it & transition into the next holiday season right along with everyone else.
Lovely colours - the golden Gingko is fabulous!

ReplyDeletei love this season on my part of the world, because the rain has finally come. but i don't know how i feel about this year about to end. eh.
ReplyDeletegorgeous pictures, Sally :)
Love the gingko leaves! One thing I love about France is there is no rush to Christmas or pressure to lavishly decorate.
ReplyDeleteI'm all for taking it slow...as much as that is possible this time of year- and the snow we've gotten seems to be pushing us further into actual winter...hang onto your beautiful leaves as long as you can Sally :)
