Well here we are on October 15th - the ides of October, tax day, last Presidential debate day (no political content implied - only a reference). Some areas of the country are enjoying peak fall foliage colors. Others are still in anticipation.
We noticed a cooling down and less humidity this week and may get our first real cold front this weekend.
Plus, the Midwest Rainers started a photo contest yesterday (with no prizes).
So for all of these reasons, and the fact that I just want to share some gorgeous fall color, here are a couple of shots from fall in Illinois from the file.

What beautiful pictures. I do miss the fall colors living here in Florida. That said, I would not trade our weather for anything. Unfortunatly with fall colors comes SNOW. A 4 letter word down south.
Happy Wednesday!! Lori Isaacson
Mike,
You have fall in Orange Park - much more than we do in South Florida. You actually get down into the 20s on occasion. Enjoy the cooler temps. :)
Steve
Foliage is a word invented by hotel owners so people would have a reason to visit their rooms. LOL
Lori,
There is a trade-off. Just think. Our fall is starting now and goes into next April. :)
Steve
No better time of year to visit North Georgia mountains. Some years it is spectacular! It is said the drought will make for a good viewing year, guess there is a trade off....
Heath,
That could be, but there is so much to see in the mountains and along the highways - even on your street. :)
Steve
Frank and Jodi,
Sounds great. When exactly is the peak viewing season there? :)
Steve
The end of October, Halloween!!!
October is by far my favorite month of the year ~ Your beautiful pictures just reminded my why!
Frank and Jodi,
October is a great month, and it ends with a celebration of silliness. :)
Steve
Terrie,
October is so pretty. The colors, the air, the sky. Great month. Thanks. :)

Steve - your colors in the photos are great and I do miss fall in the Midwest, there really isn't much of a fall in Las Vegas.
Robert,
Thank you. You do have the mountains not too far away that you can visit, don't you?
Steve
Steve: I have really enjoyed the fall foliage pics that all the members of AR are posting lately. I love this time of year.
Chris Ann,
Isn't it pretty? Of course you can the colorful leaves pretty easily in your area.:)

Steve, those colors are so brilliant; I do love Fall here in the Midwest. It is probably about 65 degrees with blue skys and sun; but will dip to 45 degrees tonight. Hubby and I are taking a drive to Turkey Run this weekend to picnic and slow down.
Cindy,
I ran across some other pretty ones that I may post later. Thanks. Enjoy the weekend. :)
Steve
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! I just hate it when they all fall!!
Teresa,
They are pretty on the trees and even when they first fall - like a crrpet on the earth. :)
