Fall Is Here!!

Fall Tree

Fall Tree

It’s Monday and I think I’m in need of a pick-me-up to get myself ready for work. It’s beautiful outside right now. The leaves are changing colors, the air is crisp (and sometimes rainy), and I like to think of the fall as a start of new beginnings. This year’s summer beauty is leaving in preparation for the new year, and it likes to go out with a bang!

I hope to get out this weekend and see more of fall’s beautiful colors, just as long as its not raining.

It is so interesting trees will change at different times in different places that are relatively close to each other. These pictures were taken at a park near the house and their leaves were hardly changing yet, just a little bit of color, while the parking lot in  a shopping center also near our house has their leaves flaming yellow and red (and some trees already half way bare).

I need to start keeping my camera with me at all times it seems, just to catch the beautiful leaves before they all fall away.
