We don't have Fall here or snow! But we have Autumn and lots of rain this Winter Lily Hydrangea ;)

Love the third image, the tree is molting! You should have been with me today Anon. Went to a live oak and tree sanctuary. The most beautiful live oaks and mescal trees in one spot. Some are hundreds years in age. I was pleased and delighted until I succumbed to the humidity.

Hhehee, that isn't tree feathers but rain Ces ;) OOOOOH oak and mescal sanctuary Ces! I guess the branches forming shade weren't enough to beat the heat. It's COLD here!

Hello Luiz Ramos and thankyou :)

I'm dodging sneezing family members here Raj! Glad to hear your flu is improving. The second photograph is particularly wintery!

Hheheee, yes the climate is VERY opposite to your place in London right now Gledwood! Hope you have a fan :)

Oooooooh, I agree with Ces about that molting photo -- gorgeous colors! Ces where are you to have lovely live oaks? Just curious...

Ces Adorio said...

Hi Albina, thank you for asking. Thanks to Anon for telling me. I was in San Anotonio visiting and the "Hill Country" part of the state of Texas is littered with live oak trees, mesquite, mescal, magnolia, juniper and other beautiful trees I do not know and thank goodness, people let them be.

HAHA, more 'molting' photographs later Albina ;)

Thanks Ces for answering Albina's question :) Until blogging, I thought Texas was a dust bowl full of people with big hats and mansions...

OOOHOOOOHOOOOH Albina! Did you marry a Texan Millionaire from the television series Dallas!?! Hhehheee!!!

Ces Adorio said...

Yes, we tried on some big hats. The Texans and Mexicans need them for protection from the sun. We bought one for my FIL since he wanted a wide-brimmed hat for mowing his lawn. We found out he wants the oriental version, so have to go to Hong Kong City mall (in Texas) instead. They do have huge homes here because what costs 2 million in the east coast can be purchased for 250,000 here.

We have dust bowls in the west but also the Hill Country, the mountains in the west, the gulf cities, the flatlands, valleys a lot of national forests, but texas is huge! Our county alone is larger than the state of Rhode Island. The entire East Coast can be crammed into Texas and still have plenty of room.

We mostly have AKUBRA hats for our sun Down Under, Ces ;)
