This is my favourite time of the year. The colours as the leaves change being one of the major reasons...

Well looks like we did not get very many shots of the fall foliage so far - today is a leisurely drive back up North to Winnipeg so if we see some really stunning colours we'll try to pull over and take a picture or two with our phonesI think Dana said something the other day about wanting to see some photos of the leaves turning. I've snapped a few pics of the property next door to me, which is a gorgeous showcase for New England scenery. I will post the pictures as they looked today, with the leaves starting to turn, and will continue to post as the turn more vivid. I love fall colors, so show off your foliage photos here!

I still can't seem to upload pics from my phone to the board, unfortunately
I use an app called Imagur and sync it with the same website on my computer. Then, I can generate links specifically for message boards.I still can't seem to upload pics from my phone to the board, unfortunately
The Nameless
M-O-O-N - That spells Nameless
This is the park I go through on my way back from my local supermarket, it's open until about 10pm. I took this picture on my phone last year after going there late one night.
Those are both gorgeous photos!

I just had the same problem - when I hooked up my iphone my PC could not detect any photos.I still can't seem to upload pics from my phone to the board, unfortunately
It's weird
My biggest problem is I don't have a PC or laptop! All my browsing and 'net-related stuff is done with my Android phone.

Here's one I just experimented with - sorry it is not fall foliage but it's from our recent trip to Toronto and back:
Well, there is a tree in the background, but it looks pretty green!

Looked like nice weather for the time of year, Neesy.

Ta-dah!
Not the greatest pic however there is a story behind it - we tried to find a hotel room, not having bothered to call ahead and make a reservation
It turned out the UNM University of Northern Michigan was having a reunion, plus there was a wedding on that weekend, as well as the tourists who wanted to see some "painted rocks" or whatever.
We ended up travelling backwards (East) 100 kms or 60 miles just to find a place. It was called the Evening Star and although I had a bit of trepidation about it, it turned out to be very clean, with fluffy towels etc.
No hair dryer, coffee maker, shampoo or soap etc. but it at least had a fridge, two soft comfortable beds, etc.
In short - a roof over our heads for the evening!
When you've been driving all day, that seems like a real luxury.
A nice hot shower helps, too.
p.s. that is our (well, my husband's that is) black Durango - I'm going to tell him that driving it was doing him a favour - stops everything from drying out, as it had been sitting a lot for the last five years!

Yes, thanks - it was perfect - we only had rain one day and it was nice for driving the rest of the time. Was just starting to cool down a bit as we headed back home and got into Northern Minnesota.
This would make a nice profile pic, Neesy. Or the one of you in Toronto.

The one of me in Toronto? With that big ole flabby chin? Yikes! (I'm assuming you mean the one from the Sleeping Beauties thread?)
Well, guess I have to get used to the fact that I am getting older.
Just today I was talking with someone about the pros and cons of taking the Canada Pension Plan at age 60 vs. waiting for 65. I am still on the fence regarding that decision.
p.s.
Thanks - I did like the one from Marquette Michigan - Josh took that when we were having lunch by the water

This guy was our night clerk at the hotel in Chatham, Ontario - he gets told he resembles a younger Stephen King, at times!
