I was volunteering on Fort Eustis base in Yorktown, VA where I am staying. While walking between buildings, I spotted this wonderful little leaf. It seems to scream "I am still green inside!"
The colors are amazing, and the center is almost perfectly symmetric, but as nature would have it, not quite. I rather like it better this way. I thought you might all enjoy this wonderful little "ode to late summer".
N-JOY!

As I looked from the kitchen window, I could see a spot of red at the edge of the woods and wondered what it was. I investigated this morning and saw that there are a few fall leaves still hanging on.
While taking a walk in a local park, my daughter picked up this huge beautiful maple leaf in it's fall colors- so beautiful!
Saw this beautiful leaf floating in the ditch while on my way to meet a friend downtown. The colors were so lovely I couldn't resist snapping a picture of it! Makes me miss fall so much!
