Fall Starting in Chicagoland

A few weeks ago when we were in the Lake Geneva area, we noticed the trees starting to change. Typically, that is early for even Wisconsin and that was the end of August. Trees have now started to change around us, especially the smaller trees and the sugar maple.

I think of all the trees that are the prettiest in the fall are the sugar maple with its bright red and yellows; the popular tree with its gold colors; the ash with its orange, red, and purple colors; the oak tree with its deep red; the aspen tree with its bright yellow color; and a maroon one I have yet to identify.

I will update you with pics as the trees in our area change more than the above.
