arosegirl, Thanks. We only had two days in Honduras, and much of them were spent in a speeding bus traveling most of the way across the country from the ship, which was docked on the Caribbean, to Copan Ruinas, but we really loved the town. Our hotel was right on the picturesque main square. Several locals in the town square. One of my favorite pictures is this one of a church on the town square, lit by the setting sun.

I went kayaking on the reservoir today, the trees haven't started changing for the most part, but there were still some beautiful views.

Gazania, I've been enjoying seeing them in my yard too. They ate the milkweed down to sticks and now are on the butterfly weed. The only time I have seen the chrysalis is when I kept one in a vase. Maybe I posted the chrysalis before (sorry if it's a duplicate).

From yesterday's hike. Perfect October weather. The leaves aren't quite with us yet.
