Autumn is here

[cinisajoy]

Out here our leaves haven't changed yet.
Friday our high was 90. Today it is a nice cool 65 or so. Tomorrow is supposed to be back in the 80's.
Our Halloween is either shorts or heavy coats. Never an in between.

They are cottonwood trees.


Okay, I'm cheating...I took these two photos in October 2012 when I took Amtrak out to NM to see if I wanted to move here. One is from the train in northern NM and the other is at Ojo Caliente.

I'd have thought the same logically, but they really don't look anything like the cottonwoods around here. I have 3 cottonwoods in my yard and they don't look anything like those in the photo I posted.
