Fall


The 34-degree temperature about ten days ago helped these native dogwoods really show their colors in the mountains of western North Carolina.  This picture also shows how much I appreciate these passalong chrysanthemums.  I got this one at my mother's, where it has grown for decades.  I have not had one of those beautiful store-bought mums to survive more than one year.  The chocolate vine on the left side of the trellis is growing, but it didn't bloom this year.  It was planted about six months ago.
