Fear not...I'm scheduled later this week to go with a friend on the Blue Ridge Parkway to find some fall color!!
Today's quote:
The test of a democracy is not the magnificence of buildings or the speed of automobiles or the efficiency of air transportation, but rather the care given to the welfare of all the people. -Helen Adams Keller, lecturer and author (27 Jun 1880-1968)
Sometimes it is a bit of a race. Will the leaves remain until they fully change or will they drop.
ReplyDeleteAnd squirrels and birds go about their existence just happy for something to eat each day!
DeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteWe are seeing little bits of color here, not too much. It is still mostly green.
Take care, enjoy your day!
I'm planning to go on the Blue Ridge Parkway soon, which has a couple of hundred feet (or even a thousand foot) higher elevations.
Delete...it's always worth the wait.
ReplyDeleteI've been very good this year, not trying to see what's already developed in higher altitudes.
DeleteThe colours of fall are always wonderful, something to look forward to each year. Your Helen Keller quote seems especially appropriate during these troubled times.
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm glad to have found that quote and saved it.
DeleteLove seeing fall happen there. So beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks...there's more to come!
DeleteOur summer was so hot that I'm not sure how our fall colors will be. We appreciate any that we get here in the Evergreen State.
ReplyDeleteI hope there are some pretty color changes where you are.
DeleteMost of the trees here get blown off by the wind but we do have some beauties. Have fun searching for colourful scenery.
ReplyDeleteOur colors are just starting to change. I need to make a trip into the mountains.
ReplyDeletePretty fall colours.
ReplyDeletelove the colors of fall. :)
