I was so bummed to see all the newly-barren trees when I got back from Ohio this weekend! 🙁 It’s even weirder since it’s been so warm lately. Settle down, Mother Nature!
Yeah, it’s kind of a bummer – the leaves are so pretty. At least we really enjoyed them while they were here 🙂
!!!! In just one week?! Crazy!
Nuts, right?! Of course, what I didn’t show was the beautiful pics of this tree’s leaves turning red. That lasted about a month 🙂
We haven’t even gotten our fall color here yet. I hope it lasts longer that a week, though! Beautiful tree. Maple?
That is crazy that ours is over and yours hasn’t started. I don’t actually know what kind it is! 😮
Yikes!! What are we coming home to?
You missed the 4 days of sun and 70s! I think it’s supposed to be sun and (high in the) 50s.
Wow!
It has rained here a lot lately, and it shakes the leaves off the trees faster 🙁 I love those pretty colors.
Whoa! I wish the wind and rain could have held off a bit more because I really enjoyed seeing the leaves on my runs lately. 🙁 now it looks like winter is fast approaching. Womp.
We have a tree just like that. I thought it was late to turn red this year but when it finally did, the leaves were off in a flash. Sigh.
Holy cow! It feels like the leaves have just barely turned color, and they are all gone already!?!?!? We haven’t had much in the way of foliage colors this year, sadly. And my mom always gripes about having to clean up all the leaves each fall. Sigh!
Ha ha, I was thinking that I am happy I don’t have to clean them up from our yard! 🙂
