Autumn Leaves

Years ago, we lived outside New York City. One autumn, we decided to get away, take a drive to Connecticut, and see the leaves.

I remember stopping the car and taking a picture of a Sugar Maple at the peak of color. The leaves of the Sugar Maple have all of the fall colors in a single leaf. So when the sun shines on them, they look like they are on fire.

Now, we tell our kids that people come from all over to see the leaves on our street (like the ones above).

And I get my leaf peeping every day when I drive to the office. The home below is in Concord and is one that I look forward to seeing every year.
