I was at the drive-through and I couldn't take my eyes off the beautiful show across the way. Our back garden is full of Oaks, which peak a little later--not quite as colorful as the Maples, but when the sun shines through, they look like stained glass. Glad you're enjoying this beautiful autumn, too. :)Beth at PlantPostingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10473637655960119672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3905148744278712684.post-48173903100762595852014-10-19T19:29:35.995-05:002014-10-19T19:29:35.995-05:00Thanks Helene.

They were beautiful, but none of the photos were from the Great Lakes region of the U.S., which is unfortunate because our fall color show is pretty nifty. But several of the photos were from the U.K., which I know is lovely in autumn, too. ;-) Here's the link:<br /><a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/pictures/fall-foliage-2014/" rel="nofollow">http://www.cbsnews.com/pictures/fall-foliage-2014/</a>.Beth at PlantPostingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10473637655960119672noreply@blogger.com
