in the neighborhood

yesterday I found myself taking photos of my neighborhood. This was taken from the living room window, in the morning, after it had rained.

then all the photos that follow were taken when I was coming back home from the post office, in the middle of the afternoon. As you can see, the weather was glorious, and for once, I had NOT forgotten my camera !!

then this is the last thing I see when I close the building's entrance door, and walk up the stairs to our appartment.

when I walk out the door

hhhhh hhhhhh hhhhhh hhhhhhh hhhhhh (yes, that's how I feel each time I'm on top of the stairs ! LOL) Doing this up & down at least 3 times a day (sometimes up to 5 times a day)

now I'm home, let me show you my contribution to POPPYTALK'S AUTUMN COLOUR WEEK. Today is all about orange.

  6. Hello Sonia, thanks so much for your birthday wishes! I can't believe how colorful it looks already in your area, it seems early to me but it's very pretty. I love your video, too cute & it's great to look through the last window as I was wondering what was there :o) Have a great week, hugs
