Autumn!!!...did someone mention autumn?

Autumn came so early this year. As usual I went out one morning and sniffed the air...and just knew. It's a change in the smell and an altering of the light. It's just not summer any more...but this year that happened at the end of JULY!!! I've lived in the north of Scotland where ususally autumn starts just after the middle of August but this is Devon and July is just rediculous. But now the trees are turning and it will be interesting to see how the colours are this year as we have not had the sun so much to build up the sugars  especially in Scotland. I shall be up next month to check them out, so hope for some good pics. Time to turn off the rain guys.
