Fall has fallen, finally!

I guess that it is about time. It has been such a long, hot and dry summer, and it is so nice that the temps have finally fallen a bit. I guess I also needed the time change to really make it feel like it is Fall. One of my favorite things to do in the Fall is to go look at the leaves, and I was really afraid that we would not have many pretty ones this year considering the drought. I was pleasantly surprised, though, and the leaves have been just beautiful. I went out this weekend and took some pictures of them, fearing that if I waited too long they would all be gone. We are supposed to get our first freeze tonight, and that may be the end of a lot of them. I thought that I would go ahead and post some pics and that way we can all enjoy them a lot longer!
