my favorite season



We're a few days away from peak foliage season in our area. A few hours north of us in the mountains are some of THE best views of foliage in the world. People travel here from around the globe just to see the breath-taking kaleidoscope of colors. So where are all the glorious mountain pictures? Ummm, don't have the extra gas $$ to drive up there, maybe next year.
That's ok though, we've got plenty of beauties in our own backyard!

I can't wait to take a picture of this again when it's fully bright orange.


view from our library




The squirrels have been busy.





I also found some cute kids in my yard, what a bonus! (:

Thanks. The past few days I've been annoyed because I should just keep the camera with me at all times. It is so gorgeous here. More pics to come!
