| Our Home on 10/16/16; The pink dogwood in front (on left) is doing great --since it gets water from our sprinkler... We are also trying to keep the grass as green as possible in front. |
Before we left for a short trip to the Smokies and Cherohala (pictures to come) this past week, I took some pictures around our yard (10/16/16) to share with you today... With the drought, our colors in this area are not as good as they usually are (lots of brown and dead leaves)---but we do have some pretty things blooming to show you. Hope you enjoy!!!! You can click on them to see enlargements.

| I love watching the DOGWOOD change colors in Fall. The leaves will eventually be a dark burgundy color. |
 |
| APRICOT NECTAR ROSE (Our Roses have done great thanks to all of the attention and watering which George gives them.) |
 |
| From our deck, we enjoy seeing the colors change along the GOLF COURSE Fairway. |
 |
| I love our MAPLE Tree in Fall. I think Maples are some of the prettiest trees in Autumn. |
 |
| Maple Leaves --up close and personal; So many pretty colors! |
 |
| CLARENCE IRIS blooming in our yard; I love our Re-Blooming Irises when they bloom again in Fall. |
 |
| The AUTUMN JOY SEDUM is now a RUST color... (Remember that these start out white, then turn pink, then a brilliant red --and finally a rust color.) |

 |
| My son and daughter-in-law (Jeff and Dawn) gave me this gorgeous hanging basket for Mother's Day ---and we have watered it almost daily to keep it alive... Isn't it pretty? |
 |
| LEMON REFLECTION ROSE |
 |
| A NEW IRIS in our yard this year; This one is named LEMON DUET. Isn't it pretty? |
 |
| Finally, here's a close-up picture of the front of our home all decorated for Fall!!!! |
Hope you enjoyed seeing some pictures of our little home on October 16, 2016... We love living in this area of Tennessee ---and as much as we love to travel, it's ALWAYS nice to come back home!
I will share pictures from our two October trips soon...
Hugs and Blessings,
