Linden Gardens

Fall Colors at Linden Gardens

Dahlias

Danish and English colors
Yesterday we entered the swing of daily life by once again visiting our favorite gardens on Linden Avenue in Kaleden. Fall is gradually establishing its seasonal colors and flowers. Today we are inundated with choices as markets, Fall fairs, artist's studio tours, and sports events vie for our attention. The bubble of high pressure continues to dominate as cloudless skies hover above us seemingly for ages, whilst Katia threatens more stormy weather elsewhere in the world. Yesterday there was a small earthquake off our west coast and some folk felt its rumbles here. Also at Athens Creek we have another blogger you should check out. Barbara is showing us what it means to live a new life with her Danish husband Kaj in Athens Creek Lodge, and Penticton BC....

Beautiful flower studies. Life seems too short to do everything one would like - but it's important to stop and smell the flowers.

The dahlias are breath taking!

I never cease to be amazed at the amazingly warm and sunny summer climate in your part of the world. No wonder there are such glorious autumn flowers.

What beautiful photographs!

Autumn colours are showing here too. The leaves on the trees are beginning to turn, my pyrocantha are full of berries and the pavement under the local horse chestnut tree is full of spikey conker shells.
