Fall Colors Peaking

Our fall folliage colors are peaking at our elevation, so Norris took some pictures on his way to and from work today. The shot was taken from one of the other streets in our development, looking back towards North Knob, the mountain we live on. Our land encompasses several hundred feet of the ridgeline where you see the notch in the center of the photo. The peak elevation of North Knob is about 4000 ft.

Here's a shot of our house in the afternoon light.

This one was taken from the front of our house looking toward Chestnut Knob, which peaks out at about 3600 ft.

Taken from our deck, looking across the Reem Creek Valley. The white thing is Norris' weather station.

This one was taken by Norris on the drive home from work, showing the expanse of the Reems Creek valley in the late afternoon light.
