….thanks to Norm for hosting Thursday Doors. https://miscellaneousmusingsofamiddleagedmind.wordpress.com/2020/10/08/thursday-doors-october-8-2020/

Hamilton, ON is a university town. Around the campus and the McMaster Hospital is a neighbourhood of family homes and student housing known as Ainslie Wood and Westdale, adjacent to the Royal Botanical Gardens. It is especially beautiful and quaint this time of year because of the changing colours.

The Changing Seasons – October 2016

Posted on November 3, 2016 by Mama Cormier

…..thanks to Cardinal Guzman for hosting Changing Seasons

October has been a month of birthdays in our family and all were special birthdays. We started with my husband’s 65th birthday, then my father’s 90th birthday, my granddaughter’s 1st birthday and my son-in-law’s 40th birthday. October also saw the colours finally change and mostly towards the end of the month. Finally the month ended, as it always does, with Hallowe’en and what a glorious day it was for trick or treating.

Signs That Summer’s Coming to an End

….other than the cool temperatures

This morning on our walk we wore long pants and sweaters even though the sun shone brightly. I noticed that the leaves are starting to change, flowers are beginning to whither and seed pods and burrs are everywhere. I took a few photos of the changes. Enjoy!
