Red leaves and blue skies. Fairfield Glade, Tennessee. October 19, 2009.

I’m happy to report that all of our roses survived Sunday night’s low temperatures and I’m hopeful that we’ll get through Monday night just as successfully.
One advantage of the high pressure system over head is that in addition to cold nights we have clear, bright blue skies during the day. I was working in the yard yesterday when I noticed these red leaves against the sky. I couldn’t resist taking a picture and sharing it with you.

I would have had to take a picture of those beautiful red leaves myself George. I think reds are my favorite fall colors.

George: Great colors in your area. We had a freeze yesterday and all my Dahlias are gone.

Glad the roses are still around for you to enjoy. The leaves in the photo are just beautiful. As a child fall to me was Halloween time but as I have grown older I appreciate the lovely gift of changing leaves and the pretty blue of the sky.

Aren’t the leaves wonderful this year…before we got the rain, I didn’t think we were going to have any color but after the rain…it was magic. Like a magic paintbrush started to work.
