Went out and took some pics of the beautiful fall colors around here. Here is a sample...

This will be my view from the new place...(the lake is more off to the right behind the trees).

Gorgeous! I love it when the trees turn. Some day I'm going to start in Maine or Vermont and follow the color south. :)

Beautiful....makes a smile appear. And we can tell which view is the most pleasing to your spirit. Your new apt will be nice. :)

Love the colors of the leaves turning in the midwest ... always have, always will. Thanks so much for sharing - they are beautiful.

Great pictures Barbie, thank you. Your will definitely have a better view in your brand new apartment.The trees around here are turning in an unusual pattern. Many trees are just turning and others are almost bare.

I think this is one of the most beautiful falls we have had in many years. Your pictures are gorgeous. Thanks for posting. It's been years since I have been to Lake Minnetonka. We used to live on Clear Springs Rd, off Highway 7 and Hwy 101.

Yes, the colors are so much better this year! So much more vibrant!

I know right where you lived. Close to the high school there and the old K-Mart. Lots of things have changed around that area in recent years.

Very pretty. I can see why you want to move to the new apartment.

Only problem with fall colors, as I can attest having lived almost all my life in Michigan, is that they bring winter storms! I will just enjoy photos and skip the real thing.

By the way, you have to start in the south and follow the fall colors as they move north. :)
