    The leaves are just starting the now.
    I love fall but there are so many trees around my property , when the leaves really start falling and the wind blows its a brown out instead of a white out, then I gotta pick them all up and put em back in the woods.
    I know wha , wha :tears: but I hate the fallen leaves

    Lets see, Aspens are a peak colors this weekend. I got to pick a bunch of apples from my neighbor's tree on Saturday and will take a stab at making some hard cider on Sunday. It hit right around freezing last night and I've had the stove running the past couple of nights. I need to cover the tomatoes tonight as they're calling for a hard frost at higher elevations. I also wore my semi-puffy jacket this morning to work.

    Fall is definitely here!

    Dave, it looks much like your pictures around here but as we go out, we don't see as many leaves on the ground and as we go south, not as much color. We had a lot of leaf drop yesterday and last night. The woods smell great now!

    Our leaves are past prime and dropping fast. Been exceptionally warm the last week here although they say the week end will return to more seasonable weather with some rain. Have only had a couple of evening chill buster fires so far which is not the norm for us. Love fall though, just had 2 large doe walking thru the yard about 20 minutes ago.

    That can't have been any fun. Talk about last minute!
    Can't burn them freely in this state. They want you to get a permit. No more street side buring and tossing horse chestnuts into the fire. (They explode)

    I saw the S word Dave in that forecast. What is the farmers almanac calling for in your region this year?
