You're lucky, we didn't get much coloring this year. The extreme northern part of the state did, but the rest of the state went from green to brown. The people who keep track of these things said that we had too much rain over the summer (although I can't understand why well watered maples wouldn't change colors).
My area hit 83 yesterday, but we only supposed to get to the 40's today. Ahh, gotta love New England weather.
I remember one fall where I thought, "I'll take pictures tomorrow" and then all the sudden the colors or the leaves were gone and I missed the opportunity.
Last year leaves didn't fall off the trees and stayed on until spring. I have pictures of these trees with leaves and snow-it was so strange.
I am also aware of years where I don't get to see the colors as much. This year is definitly a colorful year where I am and it makes me smile.
