It’s been a long 6 months since I took this picture of our Tree.

An unusually clear day in our Summer of Smoke
The heat, and the smoke, and my ‘chitis, lingered long into Autumn.

But the leaves did eventually start to turn
Winter’s first chill put a halo of frost around the fallen leaves.

Brrrr, that’s brisk
Then, this being the Fraser Valley, it rained, and rained, and rained.

After the summer we had I wasn’t about to complain
We put up some Christmas decorations …

If you look close you can see real fairies with their wee lanterns lighting up the glitter.
