Fall In The Desert

Fall in the desert is more a state of mind than an actual change of seasons. Most people around here joke that we only have two seasons, Summer and Almost Summer, which for the most part is pretty acurate.
To kick of the fall season I made a wreath for the front door and a centerpiece for the dining room table.

We also went on a walk to search for any leaves that might be changing colors.  Here is what we found.

The leaves on the Ocotillo's were changing colors

J-Man was happy to be home after our walk.

Mr. Mr. says take my picture too!

I am happy fall is here, the tempurature lingers in the 80's
for most of October and November. 
We plan a lot of outdoor activities and are happy to enjoy the season.
