In mid-October of last year Betsy and I took a drive along the Foothills Parkway, which parallels the Smoky Mountains. The altitude on the section we traveled is fairly low, so there wasn't much color along our route. I did, however, spot this pretty red tree near one of the overlooks.

Colorful tree and the sky is so pretty and blue!
I like your frosty header photo too.
Now that's the fall color I miss. Nature has a wonderful color pallet, doesn't it George!

Praying, all is well with your parents.
Beautiful, seems a liquidambar
(Liquidambar styraciflua) colors of the leaves are gorgeous..
Love those gorgeous colors George!!!
A beautiful reminder of how gorgeous autumn is!
when i saw your header, my first thought was brrrrr then i thought beautiful and it is. this is a wonderful tree and so pretty against the blue of the sky
And we love Autumn for this very reason. But look at your new icy header. Now that's winter. MB
Love the contrasts in color George.
Stay warm!
That is a beautiful splash of color. We may fuss about having to rake fallen leaves, but if it were not for deciduous trees, we would have no Autumn glories such as this one.
Wow! That is such a wonderful contrast.
I just love all the colors together. We sure live in a beautiful colorful world! :-)
Hi George! Something about the new header photo "grabbed" my attention. A beautiful shot!
This picture makes me feel just a little warmer.It is so pretty.

Seems like just yesterday we were waiting for the leaves to turn, doesn't it?
Leaves! Beautiful.
George, I love that banner.
I opened the door this morning and everything is iced over.
We never had such cold weather here where I live for so long. But thankfully no snow.
A doze of red and green is welcome indeed lol
It is all the more pretty because it's among the green ones, a great contrast. But the SKY!!!
That is so pretty against the greenery and the dark blue sky.

Beautiful play of green and pink. Creative and beautiful. I love it.
That's a lovely bright spot of color, and a pretty blue sky, too.
What a lovely shot George!
The colors and that perfect blue sky are just gorgeous!
Thanks for reminding me how pretty nature can be as I sit here surrounded by gloomy grays.
Are you dreaming of a hot summer? February used to be my worst month in winter in Canada.
Fall pictures always amaze me, so much color - and the interesting part is right after everything usually turns white and gray, at least here when it is winter time. George, thank you so much for your kind comment on my blog the other day. Nice to be back. Anna :)
Great colors, seems such a long time since fall.
love the contrast
