Fall is here

Actually, according to the calendar, it has been here since September 21.

In South Georgia though, it does not begin to show it's true colors until much later in the year.

Say, late November, early December and sometimes later than that.

Our temperatures are getting cooler, 75 degrees in the mid afternoon, which I know, by some standards that is

positively sweltering.  If it was not for the rain that we've had the past few days

it would be in the high 80's by now.  It has even dipped into the 40's in the early morning!

I know, right?

Here are some pictures of our confused trees and plants.

The first changed leaves of the fall.

My roses are still blooming and my camellia bush thinks it's much colder than it is.

Happy Fall Y'all!
