Not the Only One

It seems I’m not the only one who is not ready to let go of fall yet. Not only did I receive a lot of comments here yesterday in agreement, but I heard it from my family as well. We set up the Christmas tree last night and none of us felt ready. It’s very odd, normally it’s a day-after-Thanksgiving tradition to excitedly decorate for Christmas in our house. I wonder what’s going on?

In the meantime, while I search for an answer to that question, I’ll keep sharing my fall images from the weekend. I loved these leaves, all piled up next to a lightpost, in Ashland, Oregon. The colors are great, as are the shapes – they are dry! Where I live in Oregon, you don’t see these kind of leaves too often. They are usually all wet and glued together from the rain. They are still pretty, just not perky like these leaves. I love how the strong color peeks out here and there.

You can visit me over at Mortal Muses today, writing on gratitude. Come see what I am most grateful for!

    Lovely image, beautiful contrasting colours. We feel exactly the same about autumn – something to do with the weather I think. I still have daisies and roses flowering and December starts tomorrow!

    Your fall leaf photo is featuring Christmas colors of red and green, anyway. I can relate to not feeling “Christmas-y” yet. I’m still enjoying the lingering nice weather and feeling of fall in the air.

    We are still enjoying the brilliant yellow leaves on our big ash tree out back — much later than usual. Perhaps nature isn’t ready for winter either.

    Beautiful photo; such pretty leaf colors! I put up my Christmas tree yesterday. I have more decorating to do, but I’m just slow about it this year! I think I’m a little down because several things came to an end in November; your classes, a beautiful fall I’ve seen with new eyes, and the enjoyable weather. Great post over at Mortal Muses!

    Such beautiful red leaves, Kat. It’s not definitely not Christmas-y over here. Or I’m in denial!
