FALL FOLIAGE 2014: Week 5.


A dramatic change this week, not so much in colors as in the sheer numbers of leaves that have fallen. The yard in this photo is covered in leaves, which only two days ago was mowed and the leaves blown to the 'forest' that surrounds our yard.

The other unusual factor this year is that the trees are not all turning at the same time. In this picture you can see that one tree is completely denuded, while others are still retaining some green.

Here's last year's Week 5 picture, taken (Nov 9, 2013), and here's last week's.

We seem to be ahead of last year by about a week.
