The Leaves Are Beginning to Change Color

Trees in western Massachusetts are beginning to show telltale signs of color change.

While temps sometimes seem still locked into summer, observing tinges of orange or red on the leaves of trees are sure signs that autumn is on its way.

This is a favorite season for many people, including me.

When the entire countryside is enveloped in cranberry, crimson. orange, and yellow, it is truly a sight to see. 

Once a person has seen it, there is nothing to compare to autumn in New England.

There is a bittersweetness to the golden days though, because chilly days for sure are ahead.

But for now, it's important to immerse one's self in the intense beauty and splendor of every single day, in every single color-soaked leaf that flutters down from above.

After all, right now, this minute, is all any of us really have.
