There are many big old oak trees like that around my house. They provide incredible shade during the summer and my house stays cool even on the hottest days because of them.
It's going great. My daughter skipped class today so that she and I could go out and take photographs of the beautiful autumn colors. I'm glad we did because we're getting a thunderstorm right now with really heavy rain and plenty of wind and it's knocking down a lot of the leaves so I'm glad we took the opportunity and went out and did photos this afternoon.
howdy again melinda010100! hey ya'll don't need more rain up there! I saw how full that river was. lol. But I'm glad you were able to get some great fall photos. We don't have much of that around here, most trees stay green or lose leaves and turn brown but most don't turn colors first.
I just posted some high water/pretty leaf photos from this afternoon. The rain has been coming down in bucketfulls ever since it got dark. We get lots of yellow leaves around here, the hickory trees, ash, locust and walnut trees all turn yellow The Oaks haven't turned much yet but they get, you know, those pretty shades of rust and browns. We never get the brilliant oranges and reds that they do back east. Not in the large trees.
howdy back melinda 010100...oh the fall colors are so nice up North but all the snow and ice isn't after awhile so I guess I'll stay here for the time being.
But I am going to be a little envious when you start showing us those winter wonderland pictures this year.
