Fall Colors in Wisconsin

 Eighteenth Street
October 2, 2012


I took these photos on Tuesday, October 2. They're all from our neighborhood. The color was absolutely stunning. No wonder we love this time of year!  I was so glad I got out there with my camera because... today, just four days later when Kevin and I went for a walk, it felt more like November. Dark clouds were scudding across the sky, it was windy and cold, and a lot of the fall color has already been lost.

I hope you'll enjoy this blog postcard of the leaves at their peak of color - Autumn in Wisconsin!

    Such pretty sights from around your home. Oh, how I love fall. Praying that Lionel will drink/eat very soon.

    Can I come camp on your deck? I can cook and I do landscaping.

    GORGEOUS! I'm so jealous! If I put up pictures of our fall so far, everyone would think it was still summer.

    A narrow window of a few days to capture the mood ... that I always seem to miss.
    The quality on this set is superb. Your camera is working a treat here. On a side note, it's nice to see the contrast against the blue sky in one of them.

    Hi Judy, Oh how I love the colors of the northeast. It is amazing what two days can do when the colors have peaked. Beautiful colors, thanks for sharing.

    OMG!! The trees are just amazing!! We probably aren't going to have much color this year because of the intense temps this summer and the lack of rain. Thanks for sharing - I'll enjoy yours.

    Creative Design at His very best!
    I can't help but think that God stitched us a colorful patchwork quilt to wrap us in His love throughout the coming Fall and Winter months.
    Thank you for your beautiful post!
    Blessings,
