Here's a plain ol' Lilac from Costco, pulling on some pretty good golden color! None of the other Lilacs here have the idea... That's a Philadelphus next to it, quite green yet. Down low in the shot is a golden Spirea, showing a mix of subtle rust...

I wandered around taking shots of things showing Fall color changes. Here's my chorus line of baby Witch Hazel trees, showing a nice lemon-lime effect. That's a little Rose-of-Sharon joining in at the right.

Time to put the garden to bed for the season. Sort of sad - but necessary, as freezing temps are just around the corner now.

This is an easy, beautiful, dog-friendly local walk that just blows my mind. The parking is free - the beach is pristine and loaded with birds and otters - and there is never anybody else there!! WOW.<
