We drove to the NC Arboretum one afternoon to walk through the gardens.
I have taken so many photos that I’ll never have time to share them all so these are going to be untouched, right out of the camera. I won’t even take the time to crop them.
You can drive right in with us….
do you have your seatbelt on?
OK….we’ll park in the parking lot!
Let’s check the temps to see if we need a jacket!
Ahhh….PERFECT!
Oh, and we’ll walk up on the bank and meet a visiting artist.
Sally Christiansen from Venice, Florida was painting with chalk. OH MY! Her art is breathtaking and she was delightful!
The Fall colors seem to be improving every day that we’re here. I took my camera and pointed it up into the spectacular color!
~~Happy November~~

Gorgeous colours and weather for the start of a new month.
The arboretum is beautiful any time of the year, but breathtaking right now. How fun that you got to meet an artist.
Now that November is officially here we can no longer deny the cozy season is upon us!
Stunning photos and I felt like I was right there with you :) Thank you for sharing and have a lovely weekend. Hugs!
Thanks for sharing those beautiful Fall pics of N.C. I was hoping to make it there this weekend but looks like we have to wait a few weeks, all the color will be gone but it is always wonderful whenever we do get to the Mts.
Gorgeous maples. I have taken so many pictures of the trees this fall too.

So pretty! I hope it hangs around for a few more days! I'll be in NC Sunday!!
Looks like heaven to me.
Happy November to you!! LOVE your fall color photos. Those trees are spectacular.
Beautiful! It's my favorite time of year!
Don't you just love the brilliant colors of fall - including that bright blue sky!
Diane,
Look at those trees! Oh, this place is magical, and it displays all the colors of this glorious season. The artist is very talented.
I wanted to answer your question about my sweater....when I bought the sweater, I thought it was a Fox, and I love Foxes, but then my son told me it was a RACCOON! Oh well, I think it's sweet anyways. And you should see the other side - the raccoon's tail is on the back.
Have a nice weekend, my friend.
Love,

Welcome back to NC.
Beautiful!!! The maples are my favorites in the fall! Such wonderful color!
What gorgeous Maples - bursting with color! Our Flaming & Burning Bushes in MA are now bright shades of red. Autumn is a beautiful time.

Hi Diane,
I've haven't been around lately because of my blog redesign but looks like you have been having a great time. Love the fall maples, how lovely to be amongst them. You lucky gal.
Hugs, Lynnie
Aren't the fall colors amazing? What a fun trip!
Gorgeous color. Thank you for taking us along. Our color is amazing right now. I think the wind and rain are going to start an avalanche of raking soon though.
Happy November to you Diane and thanks for taking us along on your drive. The Maple trees are so beautiful - love all the rich and golden colours.
Enjoy the weekend
hugs

What simply beautiful fall colours. I am adding you to the blogroll on my new blog Travel Tales so that I get reminded to call by here more often, which I have not down often enough now news From Italy is no more. :(
What beautiful Pictures, I love the Fall for this very reason, the changing of colors on the trees. Beautiful.
Have a wonderful day.
