Sure wish we had wonderful color like that. I'd be happy to deal with those leaves rather than the ones I get every year. Thanks for taking us on a little tour.
Yes, the leaves are turning quickly. Last week it seemed like everything was still green and then suddenly I see lots of yellows, reds and oranges. I wanted a sugar maple but stupidly settled for another kind. The sugar maples turn orange in the fall. Love them. Also like some of the gums which have wonderful color. I love love love the fall!

I loved the drive Muddy - thank you. That was me rubbernecking in the back seat. We don't have that much color yet...just now seeing some subtle changes on the hillsides. Your colors are so vibrant.
We have had so much color already and I think they have already hit their peak. However, I think this year was the most vibrant I can ever remember. They said on the news it was because of the dry weather.
My daughter, who has a job that requires driving had to drive home in the snow in northern MN. She said when she left there was already 5 to 6 inches and they were supposed to have 10 by the time it was done. She posted pics on facebook and everyone thought it was from last year! lol
