slowing my roll long enough to stop doing and just BE

Spectacular is the best I can do for the colors of THIS fall season in Lawrence Kansas.  And it doesn't seem like enough.  

The colors followed us home from Lake Tahoe.  Before we left there  was not much to write about.  

This last week though, the leaves sat up and took notice.  Giving Lake Tahoe a serious run for it's money.  

All this amazingness right here in my own town.  All for free. All it cost was slowing my roll long enough to stop doing and just BE.

Of course you already know this, but it is the only thing I remember from college botany classes, so here goes: that glorious autumn color is the leaf's real color! It is revealed when the chlorophyl drains from the leaves during autumn chill. Every autumn it gets me thinking about humans as leaves, temporarily filled with society's summer "green," but ready to show our real beauty when the chills hit. Deep, eh? See what you started!!!!!!!!!
