If it’s Thursday, it’s time for to look back at three beautiful things from my past week (and to share them as part of Carole’s Three on Thursday meme):

Fall

1. We’re finally starting to get a few trees changing color in the area. This one is in the schoolyard by my community garden. (We don’t have many maples down here, so I like to photograph every one I see.)

2. My favorite architecture in D.C. (and my favorite restaurant on the Mall) is the National Museum of the American Indian. Friday morning, I attended a talk there and got to spend a little time afterwards soaking up the ambiance.

3. The building where I work has public gallery space on the first floor. Today a juried show featuring art made by my colleagues opened, including two sets of work by women in my office. One paints pictures of animals and the other weaves wall hangings. Their work, as well as the rest, was very enjoyable to see.

How about you? What’s been beautiful in your world recently?

Beautiful color! Our’s is super delayed this year as well. And, as such – my maple tree in the front yard is giving off an incredible golden glow (extra beautiful on a grey and rainy morning!)

Gratitude lists are a powerful tool, aren’t they?! Love your photos – awesome Fall Colors! and your office/building sounds very cool! Happy Weekend!

@Kat: Maple trees are the best. Back home, they’re everywhere, so I’m always confused by yarn colorways that allude to autumn, but that don’t include red in the palette.

@Mary: Gratitude lists are powerful, I agree. And my building really did outdo itself this year for Halloween.
