I Like Thursday #455

October has been a beautiful month here and it's been all about leaves this week!  I enjoy taking a walk around my mom's complex after I visit with her for awhile.  This tree was so pretty!


It's fun to look for the perfect ones.


I think this one was my favorite.


Of course, this time of year, the leaves are coming down, and yard clean-up is on the To Do list!  We live in an older neighborhood with many big trees, and have lots of leaves covering the yard right now.  LeeAnna's question of the week is how do we clean them up.  Well, we do everything - mow, blow, rake, you name it.  Last year, I even figured out that I could shovel the leaves up and dump them into our trash cans.

These get dumped into Mike's pick-up truck bed and taken to our city's recycling center where they turn yard waste into mulch and sell it.  It's a good thing!

And one other thing to share this week - we went to the movies!  We saw the Downton Abbey movie, and enjoyed it very much.  It's a good ending to the longtime story.


Hope you're having a great week!

What beautiful reds in your neighborhood. I love this time of year for the color! The wind blows a lot of leaves in our yard somewhere else. Hubby also rakes and blows leaves and needles.
