Fall in West Michigan

The trees have suddenly started changing around here and it's looking beautiful.  We went out for a country drive to admire the colors, and of course, I took my camera so I could share it with you.

 Some spots are full of color!


This field is ready to be harvested.



We stopped at a park for a walk.


It's surprising to see how green some areas are.


Even though the trees look green, there are leaves falling.










This is my street - back home again!

Fantastic shots! Hubby and I took a drive last Sunday--that's when I got my header pic. This is such an incredibly beautiful time of year and always makes me thankful I live in a state where the seasons change dramatically. We too still have plenty of green which makes those 'punches' of orange and red stand out even more.

Oh and I loved the post on feeding Alaina while she exercises her legs! Such fun!

Beautiful photos, Mari! You should print at least one of them and frame it.

I love walking and looking at nature. How blessed you are to do the same.

So beautiful!!! I enjoyed seeing these and enjoying the beauty of your area. Sadly, we do not have those beautiful fall colors here in Oklahoma to that extent! Thanks for sharing your beauty with Mickey & I.

Incredible, the oranges and reds you get up there. Our colors are so slow and faded by comparison. But I am optimistic that the best is yet to come!
