Fall or X'mas ?

We've been enjoying the cool Fall weather this past week - its in the 50s and 60s - so not too cold yet. I love the trees this time of the year - all decked out in yellow, orange or red.....

This is the view of our neighbor's trees from our deck.

And this is the view of the cul-de-sac from our garage.

C2 and I rescued some fallen pine-cones from a tree on Monday when we had gone for gymnastics. I couldn't find a bowl to put them in - so they're in a vase.....




And you must be wondering why the title of this post includes X'mas.... That's because if its after November 1st it means its X'mas at WLIT, since that's when they start playing X'mas songs throughout the day..... It really puts you in the mood for X'mas - now all we need is some snow....

Speaking of X'mas songs - there are some which I just can't stand.....

Like : Bruce Springsteen's - Santa Claus is coming to town (especially the ending....)

and : Paul McCartney - Wonderful Christmastime

Beautiful pine cones Moni. I hope you didn't make Cammy wash them first ;-)
