Not many when you work during the only hours where it's light. That's why we summer.

Adding more to the fall foliage info, from NPR today.

https://www.npr.org/2025/09/22/nx-s1-5550033/fall-leaves-peak-map-2025

Excerpt:

New England is currently experiencing drought conditions — despite a wet spring and early summer — which is causing leaves in some places to turn brown and shrivel up. But in other cases, Kosiba says, minor drought can actually make some leaves turn an even deeper red.

 

Kosiba says parts of New England, like where she is in Vermont, are seeing the onset of fall foliage about a week earlier than expected. But the region's varied topography and rainfall patterns make it hard to paint with a broad brush.

"So we'll see in some places, where the soil is very shallow and rocky, that we are seeing early leaf drop," she says. "And then on the other side of a hill very close to that location, we might see an area that's really green and hasn't even started the fall foliage process."

If you're worried about missing peak Northeast foliage, or planning a last-minute leaf-peeping trip, Kosiba's advice is "just keep driving south." Southern New England and parts of the Mid-Atlantic may not see their colors peak until late October or even November.

"My thought personally, because I love the fall foliage season, is that it's always good somewhere," she says. "So if it seems a little brown where you are, go a little bit to a different location."

Yikes. Wasn’t @Chrisrotary12asking about this place in the golf thread a while back?

Yes. I live 1 mile from there. Was a slightly eerie 2 hours when they thought there was a 2nd shooter on the run.
