Today seems like a great day to add my Autumn leaves to Cee’s Flower of the Day Challenge! What intrigues me about the colors are the pink tones, found in nature no less! This little tree was already decked out for Autumn while the rest of the tree is still green! Still waiting for Autumn …

Sunday Stills: Signs of #Autumn

Squares in September: Pink #Plumeria
I am excited to contribute to Becky’s photo challenge Squares in September, In the Pink! While in San Diego for my 40th high school reunion last week, we stayed at my daughter’s house.
