The red leaves seem to be the last ones to get their full color in the fall. The above maple in northwest Greensboro was holding on to a few red leaves until the recent rains. Quickly fall is changing to brown and we will depend on the sky on sunny days to add some color. Greensboro is so lucky to have four distinct seasons and fall is so special. The coolness of the air, colors in the foliage, and the scent of backyard wood fires are a delight to the senses. 

The weather is scheduled to drop to the 20s tonight. You still have time to bring your plants in. It is beginning to feel a lot like winter in Greensboro. We need to remember that each season has its beauty, and each season has its purpose. May we all be ready for winter, but enjoy the last little bit of fall that is left. Happy Tuesday.
