Taken 5 minutes ago !! Who would have thought the skies were so grey yesterday

Beautiful day for you...nice....it is grey and threatening rain here..thank goodness we got to set our clocks back so it is lighter this morning for the hour it is at least....

I can't understand the climate this year as it is usually much colder here at this time of year - it's about 25°C today !! - tho' they are saying that winter will come with a vengeance very soon.

I really don't like the endless dark wintery months, altho' I shouldn't grumble as at least we do get some crisp sunny days, but even so, I could willingly fall asleep and wait for Spring, which is my favourite time of the year.

We are having a pretty normal fall and oncoming winter this season...very pretty fall actually, have been enjoying so much...although the grey days and rains have started. December and January are normally pretty dry then we get rain again in February but we never get tons of rain right here...we get the rain shadow effect from the Olympic mt. range. I love the crisp sunny days too...the mt. ranges pop out on those days...it is beautiful.

nice blue skies...love those terra cotta pots... Italian pots are pretty expensive over here...but they are exceptionally strong! Pays to buy the best!
quite an array of cacti and succulents too....wow 25 degrees...the weather is just plain strange everywhere!... it's about 15 degrees here today...usually much colder...the sun is shining...usually much darker! lol....and no frost last night...usually an inch thick on everything!! (slight exaggeration)
