After a week of cold rain, this past week has been very pleasant and dry. Mornings started out in the mid to upper 40's and ended up in the 70's with a couple days in the 80's. It was strange starting the day bundled up and ending the day wearin a tee shirt. One day, I was wishin I had shorts with me. If there is a place with weather like this week most of the year let me know, I'll be movin there soon. . . unless it is California . . .
The sky was a cloudless, bright blue most of Tuesday. Must have been at least a couple hundred geese flyin around in the mornin. If I could've sat out by the ponds with my good camera, I think I would have shot a pic or two suitable for a calendar, but since I was supposed to be mowin grass . . .
I did stop to take a shot of this Locust tree against the blue sky. The colors in the pics aren't nearly as brilliant as they were if you could have been there.
The tall, straight thistles in front of this tree caught my eye. It was like they were standing guard.
I was mowin along, mindin my own business, when these red maples leaves suddenly appeared in front of me. They were a much more brighter & deeper red in person.
The Burning Bush's are very colorful this year. This is a grouping beside the 17 tees. They are the brightest I've seen anywhere this fall.
I took this pic from the 13th green. It is probably the most scenic area on the course this time of year. In a few days, most of those trees will be the brightest orange ever. All that is missin from this pic is that mom deer and her two little ones that hang out back here.
If the wind stays quiet, it is goin to be a great fall season for color !! Been too many years since we've had one.
