{Tuesday Thoughts}

“Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree.”

― Emily Brontë

As most of you know, I was able to spend a week with my family and friends (and my parents puppers!) in my home state of Minnesota. I love living in Southern California, but I sure do miss the change of seasons, especially the changing of the leaves in the Fall. 

Thankfully, I was able to capture some rusty reds, burnt oranges, forest greens, golden yellows and hints of mocha browns while I was visiting. Nothing says Autumn like the magical changing fall foliage that seemingly never fails to surprise and delight us.

The cool, crisp Autumn breezes while being wrapped up in a scarf, leaves me yearning for a Midwestern Autumn, but once the leaves fall and the snow and ice settle in, I'm ready to head back to my warmer climate and temperatures here in sunny California.
