Better late than never....

It's about time!  I felt like autumn had passed us by this year.  When you look out at large forests of trees you see more dead leaves than color.  However, if you go looking you can find some pretty ones mixed in.  The Maples have been very slow this year it seems.  Yesterday we drove to the lower part of the Hoosier National Forest where it comes down to meet the Ohio River.  A friend guided us to places like Lake Celine, Buzzard's Roost, and Eagle's Bluff looking for some color.  It's out there.....just scattered among the less colorful already dead ones!

It's like a color wheel out there right now and it won't last long.
