My favorite time of year is here and Mother Nature is putting on a show in Maine.
Pockets of beautiful autumnal color are bursting forth.
And almost everywhere you look, it’s gorgeous.
Warm days, cool nights…
Farmers markets filled with apples and pumpkins.
If there’s a prettier place than autumn in New England…
I’m sure I don’t know where it is.
Even the dearly departed are enjoying the show.
Welcome fall!
River's world..... 
What are the names on those stones? How old were they when they died?

The Austin family, late 1890’s. But there’s no need to interview them… they love autumn leaves falling. It’s like an extra blanket.

Personally, I’m convinced Keith Richards will never die…. I think at this point it’s physically impossible.

I’m afraid we’re not going to have much of a fall in GA this year. It’s October 8 and I’m still in flip flops. We’ll go straight from summer to winter again this year. Thanks for sharing-the colors are gorgeous!

Fall is the one thing I really missed when we lived down south. Straight from green heat to brown cold. No color!

I need to move up North because Autumn in the South sucks the big one. Our leaves turn brown, then fall off the tree. The calendar says its fall….with fall temps, but its still in the mid-80s and Summer mode. Let me think of one good thing to say about my climate………….
Have a nice day.

There is no fall in the south. It’s summer heat straight to a dull brown winter. So yeah… have fun with that!

Thanks for the vicarious autumn. It’s spring in New Zealand (surprise surprise) so the mood is different.

I miss living above the Mason-Dixon Line. Freaking Texas–where we go from summer to winter over the course of 24 hours.

Sometimes I miss Maine falls and all the beautiful reds. Here is the west it is all browns but it is impressive how many different colors of browns we get. Most of our leaves are down now and it is getting quite crisp. It is bound to get crisper since there was a major natural gas pipeline explosion north of us and they are asking us to turn our thermostats off. Are they kidding?
