Autumn in the Shenandoah Valley: The maple tree beside my deck....

October 8, 2007:
The maple tree beside my deck has a few more gold leaves on it this week....

The bass tree lost most of its leaves over the weekend.

Bass tree leaves are waiting to be raked....

The leaves are slowly beginning to turn color high up on the mountain ridges. Driving I-81 over the weekend and looking out over the mountains, I could see a few colorful trees amongst the ones that are still green. Virginia creeper leaves have turned bright red as have many of the sassafrass tree leaves. Fall is in process....
