The Tree

 There is a tree about three houses up the hill from us. It is gorgeous in all seasons, but mostly in the fall. We see it every time we go out front our pull into the driveway. And in the evening, it literally glows!








“Ancient trees are precious. There is little else on Earth that plays host to such a rich community of life within a single living organism.”
— Sir David Attenborough

It is beautiful and I see a rust colored tree in the background. You get both a gorgeous sky and a gorgeous earth where you live. Thanks for sharing.

Wow! That tree really is gorgeous and it's set off by the green leaves and orange ones near it.

Oh, what a joy to have that so nearby. Enjoy while you can. The winter is screaming down upon us.

That is such a pretty tree, and the tree in back of it shows its Fall colors. I love all these pictures, but your Header one is gorgeous. Most of the leaves have fallen here, and ever since we had our first snow, winter is upon us. Your Header photo should be in a magazine, Ginny.

Wow that tree is magnificent. My favorite time of year is when all the trees are glowing. How long do the leaves stay on?

I would love to be where I could sit and view that...it reminds me of at work...there was a big old maple out behind the house and it would turn this gold in the fall...and to walk out under it felt like I was in another world.
