Such a glorious time of year! I love how Autumn lingers in the Carolina mountains. We enjoy green trees turning into fiery golds, reds, and coppery colors that literally linger for 2-3 months…

…with daytime temperatures in the upper 60s to 70s and cool nights in the 50s, and sometimes 40s.

And yet, beautiful flowers are still blooming, from the chrysanthemums and impatiens…

…to the reblooming azaleas.

We are saying farewell to the last of the gorgeous crepe myrtles, the blues, purples, reds, pinks, and whites of which have mesmerized me since they first opened their blossoms in the Spring.

If you are unfamiliar, these grow and look a lot like the lilacs we grew in New Hampshire, but these fascinate us with blooms from Spring through late Fall.

I love how Fall keeps refreshing us with crispy nights, gorgeous days, and Mother Nature’s awesome beauty. Blessings.

Boooootifully bewitching!
