Mexican food and culture, on both sides of the border

Fall in South Carolina

November 10, 2011 by Lesley Tellez

Crayton and I spent the past few days in Anderson, South Carolina, visiting his grandparents. The fall leaves are stunning here: fiery burgundies and golds and oranges, set against a deep blue sky. One morning Crayton’s grandma and I just sat and looked at them from her screened-in porch.

Here are a few more shots of them.

And here is my obligatory Clemson University mention, because I am an Anderson, South Carolinian by marriage (go Tigers!):

Clemson isn't too far from Anderson, SC, and everyone is a fan. This is a gift for our 5-month-old second cousin.

We’re in Atlanta now and then we move on to Huntsville. We get home Sunday and then on Tuesday I’m off again, this time to Brazil for a week. We’ll spend four days in Sao Paulo and 3 days in Rio.

Hope your November is treating you well so far!

      You’re the second person to tell me that. 🙁 Did you subscribe after my recent redesign or are you talking about an old subscription? The old subscriptions didn’t transfer over.

    Late but I have to say, Fall is lovely…almost miss it here in SLP.

    Ok, that is a lie, it freaks me out. But the pictures are always stunning!
