Color Tour pt1

Our friend, Sharkey, has once again posted some beautiful fall color pix.  Click on her name to see what she has and what captured her attention.

The last time she posted colors, I followed with a pic from my front deck.  This morning, I went out to update that image.  Here is what I saw:

Our neighborhood is usually about a week behind in fall color when compared to Sharkey’s digs.  This is what those colors were one week ago:

Interesting how 7 short days can make such a huge difference.  The upper image was captured at mid morning and the lower after midday.  The sky was much different, which adds to the contrast.

Tomorrow, I’ll share more pictures from this morning’s color tour.

Personal

I visited the podiatrist today.  The X-rays show that my foot is healing nicely.  I’m now cleared to wear regular shoes and to drive.  Neither is yet comfortable, however.

We drove around the corner to have blood drawn for a PSA test.  This prior to my visit next week with the urologist.  It has been two years since my cancer surgery and I’m hoping to get another “all clear” message.
