Fall

It seems that the East Cast is not getting its fair share of colors this year due to rain.  In fact we have some friends who took a cruise along the north east coast and were quite disappointed.
Now of course, living as we do up at 6,750 feet above sea level we don't have the profusion of trees that turn in the autumn, although if you look at the left hand tree here you can see that its needles are going brown.  This is just before they drop to allow the new ones to come through.


However, we do have some wonderful maples in the area and this gives us quite a bit of lovely color.
