Cold, but Pretty

It's a shivery kind of day - just 8C so far. Two sweaters aren't enough. Definitely needed a windbreaker when I was out with my coffee and camera this a.m. But what a pretty sight - the rain has brought out those lovely acid green maple and beech leaves that look so pretty against the early morning sky.

Got a lot of clean-up done yesterday & providing the wind dries things up a little more, will be back out this afternoon to see if I can make a little more progress. The local Oakville Horticultural Society's annual perennial sale is coming up and it looks as if I've got a number of things I can donate - monardas and grasses all seem to have that classic donut formation letting me know it's time to share.
