We've had an unusual Autumn here in Michigan. It seems to have lasted much longer than usual! It seems the weather has been just right to allow the leaves to stay on the trees longer and to make the colors change at a slower rate.
Here's a few more pictures of what it looks like around here.

I've really enjoyed all this beauty, but I'm afraid it's almost done. The temperature really dropped in the last 24 hours and they say the snow may be coming in a week or two.
I'll leave you with a quote I read this week that I thought summed it up well.
"Autumn, the years last, loveliest smile"
William Cullen Bryant

Oh, I love that quote and he is one of my favorite poets.
I once visited his home in New England and was enthralled.
Your photos are just terrific, too!
It is easy to fall in love with fall. :)
That top picture is quite extraordinary isn't it? Looking so wonderful. Enjoy it for now!
Lovely quote and beautiful pictures! Autumn is my favorite time of year. After our latest snowstorm, I really hold onto those pretty pictures.
so beautiful!!!!
It is beautiful around here; we need to take the time to enjoy it
Lovely, lovely pics.
We've been blessed with a gorgeous autumn too. And yes, snow is right around the corner for us as well.
I lived in Pontiac one year when I was in 6th grade. Still have family in Michigan, but haven't been there is awhile. It seemed to me that it went straight from summer to winter, but your beautiful pictures prove me wrong. :)
MissKris at A Shelter from the Storm recently moved from Oregon to Michigan and loves it. You've proably seen her comments here and there, or you may already be familiar with her blog.
We had a long autumn too because of the short summer. I imagine we will be in for colder weather too. Beautiful autumn pics.
You take such beautiful pictures, Marie. I love seeing photos of autumn. We don't get as much of the reds and oranges here in Colorado. And we've already had a couple of snowstorms, so the trees are looking rather bedraggled.
ours are still beautiful too. thanks for sharing the photos! :)
LOVE the quote and I wanted to say I have been reading and loving all your pics. At work I can't comment, but I wanted to say your pics and your town is gorgeous!
