Last week the colors started to change rapidly in our area so we went out for a little color touring on Saturday. This is heading down the hill not far from our home.
As we made the corner I took a shot of this because this is looking at the woods that are behind our home.
We continued out of town going East and then North.
Apples are ready for the pickin'!
Some of the most vibrant colors come from sugar maples!
Our area has primarily oak, maple, ash, beech and birch and lots of pine, fir and spruce trees.
After taking a very crooked trail we landed up in Boyne City and went through this little country style store. They always put out cute displays. We drove over to Gaylord, had dinner and got home around 9 pm that night! It was a long but beautiful day!

So beautiful!! We don't get color like that here so I enjoy living vicariously. :)
ReplyDeleteI just love the fall colours. Thanks for sharing them.
ReplyDeleteYou guys are getting the pretty colors up north already. I hope some of the southwest part of Michigan will have lots of color for our trip at the end of this month. Beautiful Liz.

Just look at all those apples!!!!!!!! The trees looked like they could just fall in on themselves from the weight of all that fruit!!! Wow! I love to see that! I’ve not gone apple picking in years, but I’m itching to hit it this year. I don’t can and there’s no room in the freezer, so I have no idea what I’d do with my bounty, but it just sounds like fun! The colors are vivid there!!!!!!!!
