The Look of Fall!

Our ranch!
Mookie surveying the landscape!


Of course she always scratches on her favourite post.



The wind will blow most of these leaves off this maple tomorrow!


Mooky scouting for falling leaves!





Looking down from the balcony off the summer bedroom.



A maple leaf fell onto a burning bush!



A Canadian classic! These maple cream sandwich cookies just had to be displayed in my new maple leaf dish! How Canadian, eh??!!



Proud to be Canadian!

  1. You do have leaves falling, don't you. I've been in New York and Virginia this month, so I've seen leaves change and fall too. I head back to Florida on Sunday, where it is still quite hot. I hear the mornings and evenings are cooling off though.

    I love your Mookie. He reminds me of Hector, the neighbor's cat here who lives a couple of doors down from my son and his wife. He is the most mellow cat I've met in a long time, and Ella adores him, in fact, she channels him.

    Enjoy the rest of your fall, as winter comes in.

  5. There is a lot of colour in Madrid. Still alot of green. Sweet Gum trees (which look astonishingly like Maples) are turning fiery red. Chestnut trees are going drab yellow. But, best of all, plants are still flowering. Yesterday, I noticed these wonderful orange flowers that hadn't been there the week before.

  6. I really believe that few places can compete with the carpet of leaves left by our beautiful Canadian Maple trees. I recently had the pleasure of a trip to southern Ontario and the autumn colours took my breath away.

  7. Lovely photos. Our leaves are all down now and bare branches clatter in the wind. Bringing a cuppa in exchange for one of those maple leaf cookies!
