This fall wasn’t as colorful as last year. In fact, it felt like it came and went in about two days. Here’s a small collection of photos I did manage to grab. Most will have just an overline telling you approximately where the picture was taken.
The first shot was taken off the new Warren Avenue extension over Ramsey creek in Scott City. (Click on the photos to make them larger.)
Old Lorimier Cemetery
Gordonville cornfield 
Old McKendree Chapel
A lot of the big old trees on the Old McKendree Chapel grounds have fallen victim to old age and storms, but it’s still a beautiful and peaceful place.
Leaves on Apple Creek
The last time I was looking over the old Old Appleton bridge, a gaggle of teenyboppers were jumping off it.
Trail of Tears Marina
OK, I cheated. I ran this before, but I like it well enough to show it again.
Illinois pumpkins
Looks like not all the pumpkins sold out for Halloween.

I agree about the fall color as opposed to last year. I was expecting a dismal, brown fall last year because of the terrible drought and heat in the summer of ’12, but then fall colors were magnificent. This year we had plenty of rain and milder temps,but we just didn’t get the breath-taking collage of reds and golds. Rather anticlimatic, if you know what I mean.
