ALL SEASONS – MY FALL FAVORITES

Scroll down to see more content

 

Hello All Seasons Bloggers,

This week the link is still open all week from Sunday November 4 through Friday November 9 till noon (pacific time), because I am still traveling in Southern California

Many, many thanks for all your beautiful and interesting  posts! I have become more adept in looking for wifi places, one of them is Target (in the USA it is a department store)!

November,  a month with 2 birthdays (in my family) and Thanksgiving.  Will be glad Nov.6 elections are over, because the frenzy of some people is reaching  a boiling point.
After I come home, I have to start immediately with Christmas presents, since hubs has to leave again for work in the first two weeks of December. Am not ready  to even think about December!!

What is going on for you in November?

 

I like to say “turning” leaves, or “bright,” or even “chocolate” leaves, instead of brown:)  In the Southern part of the state is challenging to think about winter, because there are no signs, or hardly.

Having an interesting time in Southern  California, because to our surprise the older in age friends have completely changed in their philosophy about life, much more than the younger ones! I had expected the opposite:)

Some people have advanced traveling on the road of their life goals, and sadly, some seem kind of lost:)  Some I have connected with like no time has passed, while with others I’m straining to understand “where they are at” – like I have another person in front of me.

Also, some of the old neighborhoods of about 9-10 years  ago have changed so much, that I have had to make  U-turns to get back to where I wanted to go:)

The bright times were for me … painting with friends artists.

Leading to the unpaved road where we live. The forest was much thicker, with only a narrow slice of sky
before they cut down 200 trees here at this corner
two years ago (this is the “after” view), because of beetle
infection. Now you can imagine why the horticulturist
told us, “You don’t have enough sun to grow tomatoes:(“

 

How is your season coming along (in which ever way you want to reply to)?
Is it comfortable for you, or you rather skip this season?

  2. I do not like this season because all the pretty colors are almost gone, it gets too cold and it’s darker an hour earlier. October was not a good month for me although it’s usually my favorite month.
    I love how you captured the water in the fountain and how welcoming the light makes it look. Peet’s sounds cozy and tempting as I type with cold feet. I’m not using my feet to type, but it is kind of chilly in here.
    Have fun traveling and sometimes we need more than a few encounters to reconnect with people. I find the campus and downtown changes so much I hardly recognize it and I’ve lived here forever, I can only imagine how it is for you. The idea of painting with friends sounds fantastic.
    I’ll be glued to the tube watching the election coverage tonight and can only hope people get it right (or left) this time.

  3. The leaves have me wanting to eat chocolate right now. lol It doesn’t take me much. You’ve found autumn, hurrah! I need to take a drive to see more signs of it other than the leaves falling in the back yard. I love Fall, it’s my favorite time of year. Bright skies with a chill in the shade. That’s what sweatshirts are for. Cheers, Jesh! 🙂

  5. Gorgeous photos, as usual! In my November, I’m getting the garden and yard ready for summer!
    BTW, I had to turn off anonymous comments due to spam 😦 But I know you would comment if you could 🙂

  6. Here in south Florida we slipped into Autumn without fanfare. Now that winter approaches, the mornings are a bit cooler and rain is less frequent. The trees cling to their leaves. Our best time for planting vegetables and enjoying flowers lies ahead.

  9. November is a beautiful time of year – with warmer spring days, lush green paddocks, flowers and buzzing bees. I’ve been out and about taking photos and getting reading for an art market. Happy journeys. We have Target here too.

  12. Sometimes it is true that you ‘can’t go home again.’ Things do change with time. Travel teaches us a lot (at least it has done so for us,) so good for your old friends who are trying that lifestyle. Glad you were able to paint with friends. We’ve found that coffee shops usually have good wifi connections and it is easier to sit and relax there than at Target or other big stores. Even McDonald’s has wifi (but all i ever buy there is coffee, so it is hard to justify taking up a booth for very long.)

  13. November always seems to fill me with a bit of panic at times. It always seems like Thanksgiving is a long way off, but then it arrives, and if I haven’t done much to prepare for Christmas, then the real panic starts. So, at the beginning of November, those thoughts start to fill my head. A bit of a dilemma – right now I am trying to enjoy each day for its gifts!

  15. I don’t like November too dreary and with the clocks turned back too dark too early.
    Your comment about old friends, I am struggling with one, she has gotten so settled and stuck in her ways, not willing to try anything. Her opinions are also getting very bigoted which I really have a problem with some of her political and social beliefs. Not sure what to do.

  19. Glad you’re enjoying your travels – lovely shots you shared. Brown leaves are all I get on the decidous trees here in semi-tropical central Florida, but now is the best time of year with temps in the low 80’s and low humidity. Great time to get out and explore.

    3. Many thanks for trying! Did you click below “Powered by Linky Tools? You probably did. Then a NEW PAGE opens up and you need to fill in your perma link (copy and paste your url + post – on top of your post in edit mode), email, name, and click on”WEB”. ANOTHER PAGE opens up with the images of your post. choose one (select or crop) and submit.
      Once you go through the whole process, it’s a cinch:) If you have trouble next week, and I’ll try to say it another way to make it clear. Have a great week!
