This past week I've gone out walking for at least two miles every day and brought my cell phone camera along. It's time to renew my cell phone contract, and they've offered me several free new phones, but none of them has a camera in it! Whoa. Since I rarely go out without my cell phone, I always have a camera with me, and it's always CHARGED! Now what?
Anyway, today, as I hoofed it past the L of C, I noticed there are still some autumn crocus blooming! Naturally, the L of C, like the other public buildings here, has gardeners. I would assume this is why these little plants are still going. My previous sightings of autumn crocus last month were in the metro parking lot. There, with no gardeners to speak of, it's every flower for herself!!
Also, I do have to get serious about identifying trees at all seasons. I like to know what I'm looking at.

| Looks like holly, but which variety? English? Chinese? |

| Narrow-leafed Ash? Ailanthus? |

I love the autumn colors!
The autumn colors are confusing when it comes to identifying trees. What should be red is yellow, etc. and I regret totally that I don't know the difference!!
