A Kentucky Autumn

October 23, 2015  •  Leave a Comment

I grew up in New England, where the leaves are as brilliant as they can ever be.  The reds, oranges, yellows and greens mixed altogether always made for a spectacular show come October.  Driving down the Merritt Parkway with a canopy of color was always a favorite thing.  No matter where you'd drive within an hour of our home, you'd see color, bright vivid color!  When we moved here to Kentucky 1 1/2 years ago, I didn't expect to see much color. In fact, I didn't expect to see any at all.  I figured the leaves just turned brown and fell off.  Pretty naive, huh?  Well, last autumn was pretty, but it certainly wasn't 'New England pretty'.  This year, however, gave New England a run for it's money!  The colors were a lot more bold and they lasted a lot longer.  There weren't many reds like there are back east, but the oranges and yellows were vibrant and really stood out this year!  I'm thankful that God chose such a pretty color palate for us to enjoy during these autumn months!  Enjoy looking at some of the photos I managed to capture around the area.
