Enjoying the Fall Foliage

It is hard to image that it is really fall here in California. Temps are headed back to the upper 90’s and who knows how long they will last. But with it being October, the leaves are starting to change and it is cooling down a bit in the evenings and over night.

Where I live, we don’t get a lot of the changing of the leaves to enjoy like other places. When I lived in the mid west, it was abundant and so gorgeous. I just love watching the colors change and miss that part of the season change. Here I have to travel to the mountains or up north further to find some changing leaves. Sounds like a road trip is needed here!

I know that there are trips that you can take to certain places to see the fall foliage. I think in many areas it is probably almost over with now as the winter will be creeping in soon in the east and mid west. But it sounds like a trip I need to plan for the future!

Do you take short trips to see the fall foliage? What is your favorite thing about autumn?
