Our fall color is so brilliant this year. In the 22 years we’ve lived here, this is the best color on our shag bark hickory trees.

It's also a beautiful autumn here, and we haven't even had a frost yet.

We will not have any real color change around here after a long, long, drought coupled with the fact that most of our forests are evergreen pines.

Finally had a frost here. Late this year. But we had a late one in May too, so I guess Mother Nature thought she had to balance it out.

After looking at our monthly weather forecast (guesstimates) it looks like no frost here until the first week in January.

That seems pretty late to at least be getting a frost.

Most likely we will get one sometime in Dec. Where I'm from in S. Central FL some winters we didn't get a frost. A more normal winter we saw 4-5 frosty mornings down there. Very few hard freezes.

All our tomatoes are done for lol I think there’s still squash and peppers out though.

Squash died weeks ago, but the tomatoes are finally fruiting.
