Fall Has Arrived With Wild Abandon

Yep - the autumn season is here.  There is proof everywhere - that winter is fast approaching.  There is evidence to be seen right here.  Notice the colour of the goldenrod in this picture that Auntie Colleen took in her back yard.  Golden - hey - nope - not so much!  And yet.......it is very pretty somehow.  Hmmm....I really don't like winter much...fall colours are pretty but sad....and yet I like this picture.....must be her photographic skills.

I love how the background is blurred, but still reveals the fall colours and fall feeling.  And I think the fuzzy appearance of the "golden"rod may be what appeals to me, since I love fuzzy!

Of course, even though it is fall and the weather is chilly, it does not stop (in fact it probably encourages people) folks from stopping for a hot cup of coffee.  And for some reason, a certain percentage of them cannot seem to find a trash can to dispose of their empty beverage cups.  And strangely, they seem to feel the need to set them up carefully someplace close to where they finished the contents, before they abandon them.  Uncle Shaun found this one at the KFC - which is right next door to the Timmie's.  So here it is standing proudly - posing for him.



And then there are the bears.  Their attire is changing with the seasons too!  They have abandoned the onesies and the sundresses - and switched to blue jeans and sweat shirts.  You have to remember they also have fur........so when they start wearing warmer clothes, you know it is getting cooler outside.

And of course - let's not forget little Munchie.  He has donned long pants for the cooler weather too.  Here he is, modelling an adorable pair of teddy bear overalls, as usual, leading the way in the latest fashions for little tots.  I believe Granny gave him this pair for his recent birthday.  Good choice Granny!
