It’s late October, but the temperatures are still running in the 60s and 70s, most unusual for a place where we could have had feet of snow by now. My large aspen is a bit confused. As of October 23 (left photo), most of its leaves are autumn yellow, but some are still green. The photo on the right, shot on October 28, highlights the yellow against the evergreens. Pretty cool.

My tree is spectacular, as is the large cottonwood not far from us. It’s slow to turn this year, also, but it’s managing a good show, too:

For as long as Earth lasts, planting and harvest, cold and heat, Summer and winter, day and night will never stop. (Genesis 8.22, MSG)
