Sorry I’ve been MIA for a couple of weeks–my back went out on me and I wasn’t able to sit at my desk for more than a few minutes. Doing better now, but what a pain!
Here’s an autumn image from the archives. Not sure what kind of leaves they are, maybe poplar? I took this in Maryland where they have such beautiful colors in the fall.
Pearls & Prose 
Sorry to hear about your back issues – they ARE a royal pain ! Love the colors in this picture – remind me a lot of our crape myrtle trees’ foliage in the fall. Really pretty !
Doing much better now, Susan, thanks!
Believe it or not, we have crape myrtles here too. They look kind of out of place, though–much prettier back east.
Decked out in orange — just like the World Champion Astros. Very appropriate . . .
Ha ha, thanks!
I love fall in the Mid-Atlantic Region. It lasts for a lengthy amount of time here, and the colors are, indeed beautiful. 🙂
You are lucky to be seeing them!
Hope you feel better, I know that pain. Beautiful image you have captured there
I am, thanks, Cornelia.
Get well soon, dear, beautiful image!
Thank you, Ann!
I’m so sorry to hear this. I wasn’t around much either. I got pyelonephritis. I can really empathize with your back pain. at first i thought I had a trapped nerve. Not the best health year for the both of us. I hope you’re getting better soon.
Oh Caroline, I’m so sorry! I agree, this really has been a trying year healthwise. I too hope you’re on the mend and that we both have good health in the coming year.
