Thank you Annie,..sometimes its smooth going,..well most times Whistling ,..nothing as bad as to lose the finished project twice and down to the program being faulty/corrupt as was the case this time,..delighted you enjoyed the tour,..looking at the garden today in the dormant stage its hard to believe it will produced those blooms again.

It's always a miracle to see springtime. Here in the Eastern US, our fall color is spectacular too...and it's so strange, no matter that you see it every year around October/November, it never fails to be amazing... Every year, it's still like seeing it all for the first time. Same with spring time...it just seems as if it will never be green again, and then "bam" there it is!

You have a larger variety of Trees in the USA and with spectacular color variation come Autumn,..its a truly beautiful season,.. then Summer there is a fanfare of blooms,..Spring lifts up the gloom of Winter plants being dormant,..if one can survive Winter and all it throws at us,..its a miracle to have three seasons that boost up our morale.

Late late summer in to autumn is my favorite. From about late August til about Winter Solstice. We get the most AMAZING light that time of year, coming in at a low angle, sort of silvery as the year gets older. Makes the landscape and the gardenjust look so rich and vibrantly colored. What is your favorite season?

I had to think on your question,..then realized it was also like you,..late summer,.. because all the garden work has shown good results and while gardening in never finished i can now relax and enjoy to some extent,..then Autumn means its all over but i can enjoy the new colors produced by trees and falling leaves and the scent of Mushrooms popping up everywhere,..then start thinking in a relaxed way how can i improve on next summer Whistling

If somebody could bottle the scent of autumn, that's a perfume I'd buy!

Its hard to describe it,..which reminds me of smells i like but not of food as there are so many,..freshly cut grass,..Pine Trees,..Rose Gardens,..and just to finish as there is a long list,..( not Dung ) but the smell one gets when close to a Horse or Cow Shrug!
