047/366: Late Bloomers

October flowers.

Another Saturday full of kid stuff, chiefly a rather brisk soccer game– around 45F at game time, with a stiff breeze. It was interesting to see how different kids reacted to the cold. One or two got hyper, and ran around crazily to stay warm, while some others just disengaged from the game. And a couple had so many layers on that they appeared to be having difficulty running.

I was solo coaching today, so no action shots this week. I did, however, take a picture of these flowers by our front walk:

They’re very pretty, as you can see, and you should admire them while you can because it’s supposed to be well below freezing tonight, so I don’t expect they’ll look quite so nice a couple days hence…
