REGULAR READERS OF THE DOUBLE D may recall the photo posted Sept. 28 of the spectacular blaze of yellow autumn leaves on a teee I saw in Rte. 202 not far from Lansdale. I wrote that because of the lack of rain in September, experts say this fall will be the most colorful autumn in decades. I showed you the photo of that tree to illustrate what we can expect.

Last Thursday I took a photo of the same tree (above). You'll notice that the spectacular tree is all but bare. It happened in a matter of days. You'll also notice that the surrounding trees are still more green than russet. I guess the message is, ya never know. So keep your eyes open. Everything is going to pop soon. And if this tree is any example, it's not going to be around long. Enjoy.
