Under gray skies and light drizzle, I made my way down Piney Woods Church Road this morning.  I noticed quite a few leaves, and small pine branches, that had fallen overnight, including this stunning sassafras leaf. It reminds me that autumn is approaching, although a heat wave is due to strike us first, with temperatures in the mid-90s for the next week or so.  I much prefer the crisp blue-sky days of mid-fall.

  1. Beautiful colors, Clifford. Although I’m not ready for fall yet. Happy to hear we’re in for some heat. I miss summer. This summer was just too cold to qualify as summer. Didn’t even get to use my fan.

    • Robin, here in Georgia summer was a bit cooler than usual, but the AC still got a workout. Even when temperatures only peak in the mid to upper 80s, with the humidity it can feel like the mid-90s. I am ready for some crisp autumn days instead. Thanks for the comment!
