Autumn is slowly but steadily creeping upon Maine. This will
be my first true autumn. September through November is what most Californians
refer to as “fire season” (literally not poetically). I have been waiting to see a New
England autumn since I was about nine years of age.
The leaves are
beginning to ever so slightly change colors. The tree in my front yard is
stubbornly green. A few of the smaller,
thinner trees have changing leaves on the end of their branches. I love the
almost ombré
effect that has been created. Several of
the trees are quite green in the middle and gradually become more yellow,
orange and red as the branches extend outward. Even though autumn is not quite
yet in full swing, this transitional period is quite beautiful.
I also made an autumn wreath. I am trying to not
over-decorate our house, but it is hard to resist!
What other states are witnessing the beginnings of autumn?
lovely! xx
