Not Bad for November

No rain today, and a high of 58F/14.4C...and the sun even peeked out here and there this afternoon, which drew me outside to the garden. There were some fun things still in bloom (see extras), calendula and a rose bud which I was surprised to see. But what really struck me was the last of these leaves on our Japanese Maple. I put colored lights on this tree for the festive season and it's always harder to do with the leaves still on....so they'd better fall off soon!

Hope you've all had lovely days!
