Poision Beauty

We listened to music, read the paper, and sipped our coffee this morning. Yesterday was fun, but we put a lot into these gatherings, and we were both pretty much worthless this morning.

After coffee, we decided to take the dogs for a walk. We called our niece Samantha to see if she wanted to join us and she did.

It was chilly with a stiff wind out of the north.  I walked the first lap in a tee shirt, but I detoured inside and put on a sweatshirt for the second lap.

a crimson color caught my eye and I stepped over to investigate. It was Virginia Creeper climbing a poplar tree. I snapped a picture. Samantha was interested and stepped over too and I told her touching the vine would be unwise.

It's interesting that some of Mother Nature's most beautiful plants are not human-friendly.

I hope you all had a great Sunday.
