Hopefully the Berkshires will be nice and colorful when I get up there in 2 weeks.

As I walked back to my dorm from class today, I smelled my first smell of fall foliage for this year. Ahh...
The man I loved - the man who vanished - he never came back at all. But maybe he's still out there, somewhere. Maybe some day, when Gotham no longer needs Batman, I'll see him again.

Thanks, Jay! I've been thinking about this lately and want to schedule a day trip up to VT or NH in the coming weeks.

Thanks Jay. I'm planning a family drive to Pepin, WI this weekend. While it may still be early for fall foliage, I'm looking forward to visiting Harbor View Cafe for the first time.

Here is a live webcam pic of Door County, WI:
[picture edited out because it was too darn big... here is a link to it: CLICK ME]
Still looks pretty green up there... but things should be turning soon. Door county is described as Wisconsin's mini version of VT/NH.
The only drawback, it gets pretty crowded up there this time of year. |

Come enjoy the foliage, but please if you are going to look at the scenery do so from a rest stop or designated area. Too many times people are going down a highway at 25mph looking at leaves, that becomes dangerous. Enjoy the leaf peeping but "Don't Peep and Drive"

Better yet, bring a bike. Then you will be going slow enough to enjoy the views (foliage or not) and wont be impeding traffic.
Of course, I may be biased....

I'm only an hour north of you, Dave, but I can tell you it's pretty green here yet. In fact, it's probably going to be for some time. Though the cold snap this weekend may speed things up.

I'm headed up to the Virginia Creeper rail-trail this weekend, and hope to see a little bit of color. I'll post if I get any good snaps.

I think I'm going to go on a hike through the White Mountains in a few weeks. Maybe up Mt. Lafayette. This being my first fall in New England I should really do it.
