I do see a slight color change in our maple tree's leaves, and the air is cool right now. I am lovin' it!! The first week of October we are headed to Skyline Drive and the Blue Ridge Parkway. I wanted to go the 3rd week, but when DH put in for vacation at the beginning of the year he thought I said take the first week off....wrong!!! Oh well, I'm sure that it will be beautiful even though the leaves won't be at their peak color yet. We are taking the Harley, 1st long trip on the bike. I can't wait!!
