Fall color

October 10, 2008

Tree turningIt appears that we are having a late fall this year. Most trees of my acquaintance are still clothed in their summer green, but a few are testing the color waters on a limb or two.

Most of the obvious color so far is from the Mums.
This house at the corner of Park Plaza and Maine always puts on a show.

Mums displayHow long before the color spreads and the serious leaf drop begins? When that time arrives, I’ll look for a chance to take camera in hand to record this year’s Fall Walk.

Dave, walkin’ fool.

    Quincy is always so pretty in the Fall. It’s been late this year in O’Fallon it seems. Our red maple in the front finally burst out in red over the weekend.

    A few days ago I took a bunch of fall color pics, some of which I will be posting in a few days. This was a ‘yellow’ year, but the Red Maples finally came through.

Got something to say?
