Re: Really?
I like Maple frosted donuts.

Re: Really?
Yikes! No snow here yet... although we usually get our first around the second week of November... got my tomatoes in a couple of weeks ago. Still needing to gather up all my outdoor decor and winterize it, and get everything ready for Old Man Winter... he's coming soon...
Here, the tamaracks are turning yellow but haven't lost their leaves yet... my grandmother always would say that when the tamarack trees lost their leaves, the snow would fly... and it always held true.
Do you have tamaracks where you live?

Re: Really?
Nope, no tamaracks here.
You must be in So or No Carolina. We stopped once at the "Tamarack ?" I loved the art. This guy's whole art show was, mostly sky, with a small amount of landscape. I love to paint clouds.

Tamaracks are more northern trees. I live in the northwest and tamaracks are one of the more prized trees to have in this area, along with cedar.

So, I'm keeping an eye on the tamaracks to see when the needles are completely off, which will probably be in another week or two... and usually about that time is when we will see the first snow that sticks...
