Could not get out to the desert to celebrate :huh: , so I bought me some books to tide me over until then! Did it seem to anyone else that this spring/summer went by real fast and had allot of strange to real strange weather and related  things going on -like why is it raining/snowing/gale winds or not and or why did I start a fire yesterday and today we just had the hottest [or coldest](on what ever date)  on record.  And all the fires and climatic  things :wacko:  that kept breaking records, boy I'm ready for that cycle to end and maybe have a nice colorful fall followed by a nice snowy winter :wub: ! We can only wish.

I don't think we are going to get any color. On a walk last night we noticed all the dogwood and big leaf maple leaves are drying up and just falling off the trees. Sad.

Don't miss the equinox super moon with eclipse on Sunday.

 

I agree about the trees losing their leaves, but some of the East Side photographer reports have been encouraging.  I like to follow Yosemite photographer Michael Fry's blog

A friend who lives in Bridgeport reported the same drought-related prospects on the east side...but he also posted some photos of beautiful fall-colored aspen, so maybe it won't be a total loss.

I'll be experiencing fall, the first month or more, in the non-West -- midwest to east coast. Not trying to hit fall color there, but it may work out that way.

We are expecting a glorious fall color season since we had good rainfall all summer. It seems to be delayed a bit around here, but we saw trees changing in Canada and Michigan on our recent trip around Lake Superior.
