Signs of Change

Fall is slowly slipping away, and as much as I regret seeing it go, I do appreciate how alive the seasonal changes make me feel.  I really feel like a critter at these times of the year, when the natural world, and the light and the temperature do their ebb and flow.  Would you like to see some of the signs of late-fall/early winter in our neck of the woods?

Penny can now enjoy the slanty, low morning sun on her favorite spot of the couch:

The morning grass is covered in gray frost that melts, little by little, as the sun makes its way across the lawn:

With the slanty morning winter light, the chandelier crystals that we hang on the sliding glass door cast their rainbows all around the living room.  In the summer, the sun is too high for that, so it's a little treat reserved for the winter months.  A bit of color in an otherwise monochromatic season!
