Last week I was driving and couldn’t help but notice the beautiful and vibrant foliage that surrounded me. There was a slight breeze, and as I was sitting at a stop light this bright yellow leaf started to sway back and forth as it fell to the ground right in front of me. There were no visible trees by the intersection, so I’m not sure where it came from but I loved it. I loved the “light as a feather” motion it took and as it made its descent. I love fall. And as I watched this leaf, I had an uneasy feeling, knowing that one by one those leaves were dropping. And before long the streets would be covered. And don’t you know I drove to church this morning and saw very few leaves on the trees. Too few. Can’t they stay on their permanently? I makes me sad to see the dried up brown leaves covering the flower beds. A flower bed that once carried so much color, trees once full with life and color. Now brown and dead.
So color…I say goodbye. Please visit me again soon. Really soon. Please don’t wait until April to make your appearance. March would be nice. February would be even better. I’ll miss you.
I love your pictures Kara. Seriously. So pretty. It looks like a magazine!
Oh Kara, I'm lovin these and missin Wisconsin Fall. Come down this way- we'll be back in the 70's by mid February! 😀
I'm drooling. I want to move there…to that very street…and soak it all in with you. Although I think you said all that color is gone now, so maybe I'll stay put. Miss you guys!
i miss leaves and trees! idaho has about three trees- unless you drive up a mountain but its just not the same as home.
I love your tree lined street! Has it changed to snow yet?
