Faint clouds grace the blue sky on the oddly warm October morning. The last significant rain was in August and the forest is thirsty. Rain is required for a colorful Fall and so far the leaves have gone straight from green to brown leaving very little hope for the beautiful colors of the Appalachian Fall. To be honest, we’ve been spoiled the past few years by plenty of rain. But this September was dryer than normal. So I was pleasantly surprised by the spender of the maple trees at the scenic overlook in Mount Nebo West Virginia. The rich golden leaves stood out as I passed by and I knew that I couldn’t pass up the opportunity. The leaves are normally bright yellow but the brown tinged edges give them this orange hue that’s very “October-ish”. The search for a good Fall photo this year has kinda been like panning for gold. I get excited to see a few pops of color here and there but most of it has been dross. Finding this scene was like hitting the motherload.
There’s still hope for more color as the seasonal winds begin to blow. They bring cooler days and with them a chance for rain.

I hate that no good fall pics. Doing the Autumn express train excursion from Charleston to Hinton, was hoping to get some great pics. Also some pics from the lake before the winter.

If we get some significant rain it could still work out.

Thank you, Lloyd for sharing the beautiful Fall colors. Our Autumn in Alaska has come and gone, yesterday and today we had snow.
Lord God, we ask for the autumn rains for West Virginia. Thank you for hearing and answering.
In your precious Son Jesus’ name, Amen
