Pre-Seasonal Reminder

Here's a little picture to remind you that the holidays are just around the corner. Little pine cones sitting upright on the gravel at Floyd Lamb Park in Las Vegas.

It's rather ironic that they resemble Christmas trees and that the picture was taken in 110+ degree weather.

Pine cones = Fall. Just imagine if the pine cones were green and the gravel was white. What we'd have then is this: Pine cone shapes = evergreens = Winter = Christmas.

It's a little too early to think of Christmas, but after all, it IS October, and it IS Fall. Which means Halloween is a few weeks away, Thanksgiving is a couple of months away, and once that happens, Christmas can't be that far behind.

Don't you love these unexpected reminders of happy family times ahead?
