Fall Colors

It's most definitely fall here. The air is cool and dry (well, ok, not so much when it rains. . ) and the fall leaves are brilliant and flying all over the place. The autumn colors here (reportedly) rival the northeast though I've been to Boston in November and those trees along the Charles were amazing. So in this lull between holidays and before the really cold weather comes, we've been outside as much as possible, driving down country roads and doing some hikes (and when I say "hikes", it is really more like walks, since it's pretty flat and there is no vista payoff at the end). Anyway, some pictures of the scenery and my little squash friends. . .
