Leaf Peepers
In this mad world of haste and waste, cell phones, Interstates
SUVs....At this time of the year there are parts of New
England which come to a "grinding" halt......
The road sign may denote a speed limit of 50mph but all
the cars are going at 25 to 30mph.....No longer are the
vehicle's occupants in a hurry.....No sir......To be in a
hurry will just ruin your weekend trip......Your photographs
would be blurred, if they were taken from a speeding
vehicle......
You see, it is the only time in the year that Nature slows
everybody down......The short period of time from when
the landscape turns from green to earth tones is known as
"foliage season".....The colors, otherwise available year
round on a picture postcard, are now there for all to see.....
A word of caution though....Beware of vehicles which will
stop on a moments notice, for a better photograph....Pumps
