I cried over beautiful things knowing no beautiful thing lasts.
Carl Sandburg, Autumn Movement
Oh, the colors of autumn! Is there anything else like them?
Last weekend, the North Loup River in the Nebraska Sandhills was dressed in the first hints of gold and red. And, while many of the trees remained green, summer's end was clearly evident.
I'll just let the pictures tell the story.

Loving these colors! Seeing a bald eagle is always a thrill! Enjoyed your Junk Jaunt photos too!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos! I love this time of year. Yes, sometimes I wish it would last forever, but would I love it as much as I do if it was always like this? Snow, spring blooms, watermelon in the summer... Still, it is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are fabulous and the bald eagle...SUPERB! We have them here in this area, but I have yet to see one. The colors here are incredible this year, more beautiful than I have ever seen. I was so afraid that the heat and lack of rain would have done away with the colors...WRONG! Enjoy!
