I know you were drunk here but here’s a picture of my hill this morning . That area where I took it just past the town Green where they have had several frosts.  As anyone can see , the trees are loaded and the color is mostly brown and oranges . 

The point is…it’s dull where you are no doubt. But that’s not the norm. Sadly You have a lot of oaks there which provide low color.   And we all know oaks hold their leaves a long time.    And to be honest…the leaves are coming down fast now here, by Thursday…when it’s the anniversary of the October bomb…there will be a lot down.

Yesterday was phenomenal. With the two trees in the front yard having lost all their leaves (well one still has a little bit left but very little) I was able to clean out the gutters and get the grill all cleaned. Started off chilly working but warmed up quickly and was even able to take off the light long sleeve...could have easily switched from jeans to shorts too. Feels great getting a lot of (or mostly all of) the outside work done and doing so in very pleasant weather. Hope we can continue these types of weekends for a bit longer...can just sit outside and enjoy the day with little work left to do

These are what’s left…and most of this will be down by Thursday/Friday.
