Autumn in Virginia

These roadside pics document autumn in Virginia. They are taken through the car window while driving our 85 miles to stake conference in Pembroke yesterday and today.

It's miles and miles of rolling hills and winding roads. There is no north or south in directions given by local residents. Example: "Go two far-sees and turn at the barn with three dogs." A far-see means drive as far as you can see, the road will turn, and you drive as far as you can see again.


I especially like the trees that are yellow-orange. In real life the colors are so vibrant they almost look florescent.


This morning as we left our apartment we could see our breath. For desert dwellers like Karl and I, this was exciting. I'm sure the new will rub off very quickly, but for a moment today we were sending each other puff signals and having fun.
