Out for a Stroll

I'm not jealous. I'm not jealous.

@RubyHawk I've just brought the washing in and it's pretty hot there at the moment.

It sounds so weird, you talking about the heat and we’re talking about the cold. Actually summer weather sounds pretty good to me right now.

They are and they just changed from green. I don’t know the name of the tree.

Most leaves here are brown that’s why I was surprised to find these near the leasing office. You can see the trees behind them are bare.

@RubyHawk - From now on we could not go out without a coat, at least until mid March.

@LadyDuck It might be April before i go out without a coat.

It’s warmer but still cold enough for a coat.

What book are you reading? I haven’t made the best choice of books lately. I just finished one though and started another. The one I’m reading is Mean and Shellfish by Tamar Myers.

@RubyHawk I read "Mean and Shellfish" a few months ago. I liked it very much. Not all the books in that series are the best; some can get pretty silly, but the one you are reading is good, in my opinion. I like the series because it takes place near where I live, and I recognize the sites mentioned. I picked some bad ones lately, too. I started "A Holly Jolly Diwali," and I made every excuse not to read until I realized I didn't like it enough to continue and sent the book back to the e-library. I just finished "The Noel Diary: a novel" by Richard Paul Evans, which was a beautiful story. It took place at Christmas, but I didn't feel the holiday. I had asked you in another reply before I read this one. I am reading a romance I have wanted to read for a long time called "One Day in December" by Josie Silver. I have enjoyed what I have read so far. I am still at the beginning of it.

@Marty1 the best book from the library this time was The Good Luck of Right Now by Matthew Quick. I've enjoyed reading it, I finished it today. I'll look for more books by that author. It was well written and completely straight forward.

I did, I was in a few days. It felt good to get out again.

@CarolDM It was stormy last night but everything’s okay.

@RubyHawk Hope you are safe today.

Thank you, I enjoy getting out and looking for the last of the pretty colors.

@RubyHawk Well at least you could have a walk! Of course, it would have been quite cold!

@RubyHawk At times if some clouds persist after the rains, an effect is created which in fact can raise the temperature.

Yes, we’ve had two solid days and nights of rain. It cleared a bit this evening and I went for an hours walk after being cooped up two days. All the beautiful colors are gone.

@RubyHawk Oh it really does Ruby..so gorgeous now

You can see behind the colorful tree that all the other leaves have fallen so that makes it really stand out.

@RebeccasFarm The leaves are brown now.

@RubyHawk I might love cabin fever. I am planning on staying inside.

@sharon6345 I loved it while I was feeling so bad, but enough is enough.

Not feeling like getting out for a few days gave me cabin fever.

@RubyHawk aw, thanks, ms. ruby. nah, aint penned 'bout such. not much 'news worthy' fer me. big hugs ~

@crazyhorseladycx Nothing news worthy here either. Hugs back atcha. I’m glad to see you back.

I am so glad to see you back on Mylot. I hope you’ve written a discussion with all your news! I will look and see if I can find it. I have wondered so much about you.

@RubyHawk It's the little pleasures that take us by surprise.

@just4him That’s true. It’s what makes our day.

I was so happy to get outside for awhile.I didn't expect to find this beautiful colored tree.

It was a nice sunny day, and I thought the tree was pretty.

@RubyHawk Yes, very nice! Enjoying your pictures... living Oahu in Hawaii, no such trees of autumn.

@oahuwriter. Ohh, so you don’t have fall in Hawaii. Your leaves must gradually shed all year.

Thank you. I have no idea of the name of the tree. It’s not even pretty until the leaves change colors.

@Beestring I’ve taken pictures of many pretty colored trees this fall.

@RubyHawk Yes, the color of the trees are pretty.

I’ve had a bad cold and had to stay in a few days. It felt good to get back outside. Glad you and the grandkids could get out and walk.

We had mostly yellow leaves but some of the pretty reds. I’ve snapped a lot of pictures.

I really enjoyed being out.

We've also had a few warmer days.I'm afraid it won't last long.
