Cactus Monday: Autumn in the desert


I'm thrilled beyond thrilled to be back in New England for what promises to be the best colorful Autumn in years. I think the West should be able to celebrate the season for the same reason....COLOR!!!

  5. We have certainly had the rain the past couple of days. Like they say it brings more fall color. Your cactus picture reminds me of the colors of autumn. Lovely. HCM.

  6. Isn't it odd that fall colors are "warm" and summer colors are "cool"?

    The light has definitely changed too-it's that warm golden light you usually don't see until October. Yesterday it was bathing a misty field of sunflowers-gold on gold, surrounded by droplets of water. My eyes drank it up like a tonic.

  12. What amazes me is that I never thought of autumn colors in the desert. Your cactus are a perfect example.

    I have seen autumn in New England and it is pretty much the same as Wisconsin.
