red is the new yellow.

In both Prescott and Santa Barbara, come fall time, the leaves change from green to yellow to bare. Welcome winter. But in our neighborhood we have maples galore and they turn from green to yellow to RED to most likely bare... and I LOVE the red. Josh loves the maple, well, for obvious reasons... (Oh Canada!) But what a lovely tree and what a brilliant color it is showing this fall season...

(Obviously I can say I love these trees because I don't have one in my back yard that requires me to rake EVERY Saturday... but I still love them!)
