Orange You Glad It’s Autumn?

It’s been a beautiful fall color season in New Albany this year.  The maple tree in our backyard looked particularly radiant, with its blazing orange leaves.  Unfortunately, the inevitable autumn storms have come, and the wind and rain have knocked many of the leaves off the trees — as the carpet of color at the base of our maple tree indicates.  We’ll have a more days of the beautiful colors, then it will be time for the grim Skeletal Tree Season.
