While it is not exactly reminiscent of Lost Maples (near Utopia, Texas) this is about as much fall (or winter) color as we get out here on the edge of nowhere (which is further than the middle of nowhere). I noticed this pretty little tree up by the road the other day and asked Jody if it had always turned yellow in the fall (winter). We have been here about six years, and I had not noticed it being this boldly colored before. He said that sometimes it turns red (the Bradford Pears sometimes turn red in the fall, too), but this was the first year he had noticed the yellow color.Not a bad day for a Monday. It was a lovely day in central Texas today, highs in the middle 70s, so that was swell. There is allegedly a cold-front coming through today (maybe it already has) and the high temperature tomorrow will be in the 60s. Then rain for Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. If it rains on Friday, that will delay the relocating of the cattle that we have planned. We are going to have to play this one by ear.
Tomorrow I will be working with the Austin Board and KVUE at the Habitat Blitz Build. It is going to be good. Stay tuned for photos.
Deeds, Actions, Changes, FALL (WINTER), Kindnesses, Whirled Peas, FUN!
