Autumn Vines

These autumn vines remind me so much of Paris. Actually this is right here in Birmingham at my daughter's home.

Dripping with Autumn Color

A stroll through Oak Street Garden Shop is a delight in the fall. So far, we still have very warm weather and now turning leaves, but this place is dripping with it. 

Farewell Fall!

Autumn in Birmingham came very late this year. We suffered through an awful drought. I love the autumn color in my city and bid it a fond farewell as we are finally getting rain and just this week some chilly weather. Christmas is in the air. Stay tuned!

Sunday Church Series - Fall Color

It's fall y'all..... but it's really not

The truth is that our city has been in  a long drought. Very few trees are able to put out their wonderful autumn show that Birmingham loves. Almost everything as dried up and leaves fallen. In addition, it's as wam  here as it was in September, making for a faux fall! Thankfully, I have a deep pocket of fall photos in Birmingham, This was taken at our lovely Linn Park downtown, a few years ago. 

Fall Color!

 Taken when the Thomas Jefferson Hotel in downtown Birmingham was beginning their renovation. I can't wait to see it all spiffed up!

Autumn in Linn Park

We're not having much of a colorful autumn this year due to the drought, so I've dipped into the archives. Today, Linn Park's monument honoring Mary A. Calahan, former principal of Powell School in downtown Birmingham.

Hanging On!

I missed some of our fall color while I was gone, but thankful some hung around till I got back.
