On Sunday we took a walk around the neighborhood to see the fall colors. I thought I wouldn’t see any this year but we saw several colorful trees. Here are a few pictures from our walk.

Fall Sky
We had more than a inch of rain today but the evening sky cleared and showed some beautiful fall colors!
Waiting For Fall Color
It’s October 2nd and even though the government is shut down and the nasty republicans are to blame, fall still hasn’t arrived yet. I have been waiting for the fall color for weeks. We were out this weekend and it looked like all the leaves we going from green to brown. I haven’t seen any major color. This picture was taken last year when we had some really nice color. I keep wondering if we will see any color this year at all! And no, I won’t be posting about the government shut down. There’s enough of that on other sites.
Fall Is Here
Fall started yesterday at 4:44 PM. Today was the first full day of fall. The temperatures were very cool this morning. I think it was like 50 degrees. It was crisp and definitely felt like fall. During the day it only got up to 70 degrees but the humidity was low and there was a cool breeze most of the day.
Fall is my favorite season. I love the crisp nights, low humidity warm days, the trees changing colors, the leaves falling and all the holidays we experience between now and the end of the year. Mostly I love the colors I see in the trees. Each year is a bit different. Sometimes the rain fall, temperatures, etc. are just right to make for a beautifully colorful fall. I’m not sure how this year will turn out but I’ve already started to see signs of a quick color change. There’s one tree in my parking lot that changes quickly. I checked it out today and sure enough most of the leaves had changed color and started to fall. I thought it was a little soon for the leaves to be falling. The color is almost on track but the falling leaves is too soon. I want them to stay on the trees to enjoy them. But you can’t stop nature. The trees will do what they are going to do with the conditions they’ve been given. I just hope I see some really colorful trees this year. I don’t want them to turn brown too soon.
What’s your favorite season? Why?
Fall is Fading
Fall came pretty quickly this year. And just as quickly it is fading. Taken with my iPhone 5 late this afternoon. Oh and it’s Veterans Day. Hopefully you thought about our veterans today.
