Autumn.....

......looking for some colour while waiting for Cyclone Cook to arrive.

It's a case of 'here we go again', Cyclone Debbie departs and Cook arrives, Coromandel and Bay of Plenty are on state of emergency, chaos in Auckland as everyone leaves work to batten down the hatches and air travel has been disrupted. Cook is expected to arrive in North Canterbury overnight with severe rain and wind......

....meanwhile, there were very small pockets of sun this morning, I hung the washing out but this afternoon the sky was dull and dreary, wet washing came inside. It's been very calm and if it wasn't for the birds twittering in the garden it would've been an eerie kind of day.

Thought I'd better blip this autumn splendor as the maple might be stripped bare when Cook arrives.

To my family, friends and NZ blippers.....Kia kaha
