We took a ride to look at the beautiful fall colors. It was a beautiful fall day...the fall colors are so beautiful right now.
 This one was taken as the car was moving...the road was too busy to stop.
This is from our old neighbor hood...the area is so beautiful...I really miss the older big trees...
 This is a man-made pond in our old neighborhood..

You've got lovely autumn colours!  I really like the first photo. The sky is so blue and the buses add to the autumn feeling.

Beautiful shots Sherry. I keep trying to capture the fall colors with my camera, but somehow they don't look the same.

Beautiful photos, I like the first one too but they are all great.
I guess our autumn color will start showing up around the first of December this year so I will thoroughly enjoy yours.

Kuntrygal...yes I miss the place but 3 acres was keeping us too busy all of the time..we loved doing it but we never seemed to get done. I was really missing it seeing my old home and the neighborhood and when we stopped to talk with a friend...I did see a small snake...so many there ,even though they are not poisonous. My legs and my husbands health would of forced us to move any ways so we made the right move when we did. Now we get to enjoy the grandchildren in sports.

Say Sherry...those fotos are lovely. It looks like your woods and Petunia's are similar--well, I mean that you folks seem to have similiar trees growing in your respective states.
Your pics are dramatically beautiful.
BTW...how's the Llama?

Sjoerd...the llama has been staying home since the last outing. I am sure he will be out again but at least he can't wreck anything with fall coming. Bob (the llama) is tied up through rain and shine, I cannot figure out why they leave him out in the rain and not give him some protection....Hopefully he was a warm spot for winter in the barn...Sherry
