Pleasantly, I might add!<br /><br />Valerie, I confess that one of the biggest things I miss about living in the north is autumn, and autumn colors. There are a few brilliant maples around, but ours is a silver maple, which only turns yellow. The dogwoods will be a beautiful dark red soon. I know you enjoy your colors!<br /><br />Thank you Toodie!<br /><br />Flower, that's so true. It really gives us all some wonderful things to see and learn about.<br /><br />Sharon, yes it is sad, but I reckon it's a lot of work and she's so busy with non-computer things right now. Still, it was fun. And as as you say, the best part was seeing colors all over the world.Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-84744334537670950902010-10-30T00:12:08.799-04:002010-10-30T00:12:08.799-04:00You have so many different colors - it's neat ...You have so many different colors - it's neat to see what life is like on the opposite coast.

Sue, tha...Pam, I just love October, don't you?<br /><br />Sue, thanks. I thought you did an excellent job showing off your October colors. Of course, a photo can't always do justice to color. <br /><br />Alla, the orange is a young sassafras tree. We have several back there. I never realized how they looked in autumn. I'm not a fan of orange, but I really like this one. <br /><br />Mama Pea, the cluster of purple berries I do know. Those are beauty berries, and are evidently prized for making jelly. Those grow near my chicken coop, but I'd need a whole bunch more for jelly. They are a unique color, aren't they?<br /><br />Laura, I really must identify those pink pods! It grows on a skinny bush, 3 - 5 feet in height. They are leafless now, so I'm not sure how to identify them. :oLeighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-17386149291698692052010-10-29T11:07:03.056-04:002010-10-29T11:07:03.056-04:00The berries are really cool, as is the last photo....The berries are really cool, as is the last photo.
