Driving home through Kentucky last week we were treated to lots of autumn beauty. The rust, orange, red and yellows were spectacular, especially up against the beautiful blue skies. Winding roads into campgrounds gave us many opportunities to exclaim "Oh!! Look at THAT one!"
I know that this short season means that colder Wisconsin weather is on the way, but I try to "ignore" the fact that I will soon be searching for gloves, hats and scarves and just take in the loveliness while it lasts.
Walking Fenway the day after we got home, where Milwaukee temperatures had been much colder and the first spattering of snow hit the ground the morning we drove up I noticed a little bright spot along the sidewalk right outside the building.
What brave little blossoms, close to the ground and peeking out from the decaying leaves and browning grass. They won't last long but maybe they are giving us a hint that spring will be back after the cold winter months are over. Yea!
