Out of the Blue...




"Every leaf speaks bliss to me,
fluttering from the autum trees"

--Emily Bronte


You just can't hide your true colors forever.  Eventually, they will always come out and burst forward.   And more often than not...those true colors are so much more vibrant than what you were hiding behind anyway.   Isn't it interesting this happens in the autumn of one's life?  So says the 51 year old!  Think I'll wear some red today and celebrate my true colors, which means....I'm going shopping for a new pair of leather boots!

  2. I totally know what you mean by those true colors . . . my next birthday is the big '50'!

    Gorgeous image, those colors against the sky! Have fun boot shopping. I'm feeling the need for some PINK ones, cowboy ones of course! ; )

  3. Bright autumn colors against that blue sky, I just love it.

    Isn't funny, that as you grow older certain colors that you would never have worn before, are the one that now look great on.

  7. Love those true autum colors in the trees, Kathy. Your sky is a perfect backdrop.

    Well, did you wear red? I wore blue striped, blue, and blue striped shirts and black--early and late--and kakh--to go out--shorts today. Those plus my P.J.'s till eleven (blue and blue).

    Good luck on the boots. Wear them while you can. I did when I was 51 but my right foot has finished cratering now. Dr. says to wear only athletic shoes with athletic support for me anymore.

    Happy MidWeek Blues, I'm sure you wanted to know all that (not).

  10. I would love to live somewhere where the leaves turn.. Here in the desert it goes from green to dead.. No beautiful colors. Why I still live here I have no idea..

    Your photo is fabulous..

  11. Jim...I NEVER let physical issues or comfort get in the way of a good pair of shoes/boots. One must suffer for fashion sometimes, haha.

  13. Hey, you and I are the same age. 1960 was a great year. :)

    Gorgeous photo, Kathy. I love red leaves -- especially maple. Just screams Autumn.

    Have fun buying your boots!
