Very strange fall season so far in Michigan. The leaves slowly began to change colors as early as August, yet we are in mid-October and quite a large number of trees are still green.
We have a large oak tree in the middle of the back yard that displays a beautiful array of red and orange and yellow every year - except this year. Right now it is mostly green with one or two branches hosting a combination of reds and yellows.
I don't know how the color tours are going this year, but in our neck of the woods, so to speak, we are seeing more green than other colors and the leaves are falling like rain.
Not only that, yesterday the thermometer reached over 80 degrees after a very cool weekend.
Windows up, windows down, get out the thermos - no wait, don't need them yet. Tis all very confusing.
The good thing is - at least there is no snow. The prediction is a long, cold winter. Let's hope that is wrong and we have a mild, sunny short winter. Oh well, one can wish, can't they?
What do you think? Has fall arrived in your area?
