Orange and Gold

We had a lovely Thanksgiving weekend ... three days of record breaking warmth and sunshine!  Perfect for getting out and enjoying a fall fair along with the changing colours ...

  Leaves that have turned to beautiful shades of orange and gold ...

Old trees with a colourful carpet of leaves below ...

Spots of orange tucked in among the green ...

A display of pumpkins at a farm stand ...

Bushel baskets filled with squash, gourds and mini pumpkins ...

Dirt still clinging to just picked pumpkins ...

Perfect Autumn days.

  4. It WAS a glorious Thanksgiving weekend! We were certainly blessed with that. Now we are back to the "usual" of the rain and the cooler weather, but seeing what your eye captured last weekend reminds me of the warmth that was. I love how you capture texture (the old trees, the Church), and know exactly where to pull your focus! Enjoy this weekend Lynda, whatever you are doing!

  8. Perfect autumn days indeed. These made me so happy.

    (Zucchini bread is my most favorite bread ever, but I have never made it myself. The idea of shreddding zucchini always stops me. Though now I wonder if my food processor would do that part for me.)

  11. I LOVE the first two, Lynda! They have just a hint of melancholy and mystery. And pumpkins are always delightful in every way. :) xxo

  12. Happy wayyyyyy belated Thanksgiving, my friend.
    And Happy Halloween to you as well!

    So funny, this huge country we live in, being on opposite sides of it, we had the same kind of unusually warm weather that weekend. :)
