Waxing poetic
This is the best month of the best season, and I've been woefully short on time to enjoy it. Yesterday I finished up at work 15 minutes before I needed to head to Salem, so I gave myself the gift of walking around the neighborhood and soaking up autumn beauty. Oh, exquisite delights!
A friend posted a lovely photo with this quote on Instagram – “There is something in the autumn that is native to my blood." Such a perfect sentiment that I had to ask her who wrote it, and she introduced me to one of her favorite poems:

Totally agree regarding the autumn season. Gorgeous pictures you captured on your walk.
What stunning color, it simply takes my breath away!
Nice poem! I love the leading lines in your last photo: the fence, the sidewalk, the road. Like the lines in the poem, they make you want to meander down the colorful lane.
Gorgeous photos- thank you!
Glad you all enjoyed the pics! I shared some less spectacular photos of "country color" on my Instagram account; I try not to use the same photos both there and on my blog.
You are such a good photographer! Those are exquisite pictures. We don't have quite such good color down here in Northern CA yet. Thanks for sharing!
Aw shucks, Sue; thanks!
