Well... the {short} sunny days of summer are over.
They were GREAT while they lasted!
We are in full October mode and the rains are finally here. I suppose this is the reason why our forests are so lush and green :-)
It is easy for residents of this area to be somber about the gloominess of the fall and winter months... I am guilty of it myself!
Today, I stopped and {smelled the roses} took a look around our huge back yard (which is part of Forest Park- the largest urban park in the United States) and saw the beauty of nature at work.
Leaves are quickly turning to gorgeous hues of yellow and red and orange. I decided to take advantage of the short fall season and took some closeup photos of the most colorful leaves I could find...
Here they are :-)
Happy fall everyone!
