Fall in Raleigh

The drought has been terrible in Raleigh this year. The city is down to a 115 day water supply. My dad said that the leaves on the trees were starting to turn brown and drop. Then Raleigh got a nice, long rain over a few days. Nothing to make much impact to the drought, but the trees sure seemed to be happy. We got home just in time for the color. All of these are from right in front of the house.









Being gone through the entire growing season means fields of weeds and lots of messy plants. As an omen, there was one gorgeous rose blooming on some plants Julie's dad gave us years ago.



It is good to be back in Raleigh and see friends and the neighborhood.
