Sorry about the camp - I have a major project for next summer to scape down and repaint the metal siding!  Camp started life as an old logging building built in 1937.  Was intended to last only a couple of years.  Many years and a few additions later she is still going strong.
 
Thanks for posting them Mark.
 
Kickboxer, sorry for the hijack!

Well, heres a pic I took at a rest area in southern Virginia. Should be prettier in a few weeks. My poor photo doesn't do the area justice.

It is beginning to look "fallish". Nice pic.
We have had a slowdown here, probably due to a lack of rain. However, today may have made the difference. If we are to have a magnificent fall, it should start showing up in the next few days. Otherwise, it will just be mostly brown.

Nice pictures Mark.  Our colour is gone now up north, most of the leaves have dropped.  That area looks very nice.

I didn't take any pics of West Virginia this go around, but my boss is sending me back up there next week or so.

The foliage should be VERY colorful by that time. They were actually talking about a chance of snow next week up there on the local TV stations.

Should make for very interesting driving conditions in the mountains!  Be careful up there.  Ran into a snow/ice storm one year while driving through the Corbin area - was not a good time!

This pic pales in comparison to some of Doggers and KB's, but here goes.
Taken at a rest area on the Tenn./NC border on I-40 a few weeks ago. Wish the pic would have came out better. It was a magnificent view!

This does not have very colorful leaves but it is out my back door.   

 
  No It is not another world with two rising suns. Its just the double pain glass that gives the effect.
Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.
