When I moved here twenty years ago there were no trees in the garden. On a lovely warm autumn afternoon, I was hanging out on my patio admiring the trees I had planted as saplings.

I took yesterday off to do some errands and then see autumn and be by water. Mission accomplished. We are not quite at peak season yet, but getting there.

While busily photographing flowers in the garden, autumn began. We are not at peak foliage season yet. I hope the rain in the upcoming days doesn’t make that less beautiful than usual, because we need rain so badly.

The view from my work window yesterday afternoon, in between a rainstorm and a thunderstorm. The second rainbow was very faint, hope you can see it.

As I have mentioned before, this has not been a hallmark year for New England. But while in a historical part of my city, there this was in all it’s autumn lit glory.
