Leaves

 The leaves are almost peak...we have just a few more days to enjoy them.  

Our yard.  As you can see I will be mulching leaves this week. 


The driveway.


The Burr Oaks are turning golden this year...they usually don't have the best color. 

We went for a Ranger Blue ride....some of the color out there is just fantastic! 


We visited several cemeteries along with my baby brother, his bride and Baxter.  Checking to see what needs tending before it snows.

What a beautiful area. I think our colors are getting close to whatever they are going to do this year. Some things turned early and some leaves are already gone.

The two frosts changed things up here.

Looks stunning. Enjoy.

I think I spy a Maple! You are lucky to still have a brother. All mine are gone on. I had three. A brother is a steady hand when a sister needs one. Sisters love and care but a dear brother can do and will.

Lovely color! We are mostly green turning to brown. Hope your Lyme is continuing to subside.

Beautiful colors! You all definitely have had a short summer - - seems shorter this year than others. So thankful you are feeling well enough to be out and about!

Sara said...

Beautiful photos. I guess we all wish the color would stick around longer each fall.

When the leaves change and the wind blows, we don't get to appreciate the colours for very long. The cemetery photo is lovely.
Enjoy your mulching!

You have a gorgeous entry to your home. We aren't at the color you have yet.

The tree in the cemetery is amazing!! One strong wind can take down a lot of leaves.

So pretty!
We're back to 80 here again, more browning, I fear.

I like the brilliant red leaves.

It is certainly a great year for vivid color! Love your pictures!

So lovely! We are mostly having low color, since it's been so abnormally warm. And no rain, either.

Betsy said...

Our leaves aren't changing much yet, but with the cooler nights the past few days, that will change quickly. Yours are so gorgeous.
Blessings,
Betsy

That is a beautiful tree at the cemetery. Our cemetery in the south has been getting rains so the grass may be growing again. The cracks in the ground were so large in that clay soil.

Shirley said...

You are getting more color than we are! The wind has taken care of most of the leaves here.
