Just in time for the fall with this really very “Pretty Shade” of orange. Fall upon us means plenty of colors coming our way. Enjoy the season change and all the colors coming your way. Gratitude and Kindness don’t change so enjoy them as well.
UP's Potash Local rolls along the Cane Creek branch near Jug Handle Arch and passes this shade tree on the way by. Outside Moab, Utah.
While the horses were happy grazing out on the paddock they did like the shade under the lovely Gum Tree near the fence.
Grant, when my hour comes, that I may recognize you under the species of each alien or hostile force that seems bent upon destroying or uprooting me. When the signs of age begin to mark my body (and still more when they touch my mind); when the ill that is to diminish me or carry me off strikes from without or is born within me; when the painful moment comes in which I suddenly awaken to the fact that I am ill or growing old; and above all at that last moment when I feel I am losing hold of myself and am absolutely passive within the hands of the great unknown forces that have formed me; in all those dark moments, O God, grant that I may understand that it is you (provided only my faith is strong enough) who are painfully parting the fibres of my being in order to penetrate to the very marrow of my substance and bear me away within yourself. (DM, 89–90)

You just have to look better....
Redwood sorrel is one of the very few plants adapted to the prolonged shade under the giant coastal redwoods. After the winter rains, sorrel spreads - appearing like a thick, rolling green carpet. In this grove the redwood sorrel thrives in the shade provided by the forest canopy.

Went on a country drive northwest with hopes of getting as far as Galena but only got as far as the Rock River and Rt. 72. ive been searching for fall colors but they are slim pickins. Found this small farm building under a tree that has pretty much reached its own personal peak in the color change. The way it shaded the building and framed it caught my eye.
Have a great week everyone :-)
