Turkey Trot

Wild Turkeys hurry by the new pond this morning.  I opened the door quietly but they are wary.  Yesterday the group was relaxing in our driveway.  A  pickup skidded to a stop;  I opened the upstairs window as the guy jumped out while grabbing his bow and arrow;  I yelled  "Don't even think about it!!!!!"    He muttered  "All right" and drove away. 

An early morning walk

I am taking an  early morning walk around the field.

 

Just leaves.....

                                         I sit for a while

And enjoy the view.

                             Ferns provide some of the best colors of autumn.  

                  I walk beside the stone wall,  turn and see another favorite view.

                                   The sun peeks over the hill and through the leaves;

 buildings cuddle on a neighbor's farm.

Pumpkin, Foliage and Fog

 

After a day of rain, it is warm and the sun came out.  So many leaves have fallen since yesterday, the colors have faded a bit.  The fog lifted itself out of the valley and in a few minutes was gone.

Peak Foliage

Wednesday 3 October 2012 

Today seems to be the peak of autumn colors on Music Mountain.  Other parts of the state are later but our leaves are beginning to FALL.  So that's where they get the name.
