FALLING LEAVES, 2020: Week 8:

We start the week with the usual pond view from our deck.

Everything not evergreen is now brown - and mostly gone.

Here's our road. A few reds left, but not much else.

Looking downhill toward the creek, there is still some color, mostly a result of the fact that last week's winds didn't get down into the valley. Otherwise they'd be gone.

Here's our pond, still with a bit of color left, since it's mostly surrounded by evergreens.

Finally one from outside our little community. This was taken at an abandoned house on TVA property near the Lake Blue Ridge dam. I don't know the tree species, but the foliage is absolutely spectacular.

Last week's pictures are here; next week will be the last of this year'e series.
