Autumn Fall Foliage
Peak foliage color in capital city of Montpelier and the Stowe Mountain area region of Vermont in 2016 took place on the weekend of October 8th 2016
Foliage color generally starts to change in the higher, cooler areas of the Green Mountains, spreading down into the Lake Champlain Valley and Connecticut River Valley, and moving from north to south across the state. The exact timing of the color change varies from year to year, based on the weather.

Our second night in the country (as Mongolian people call all it's outside Ulaan Baator). We camped in this "nowhere" close to this tree.
It seems such a long time but I am working through the Cooktown images like a never-ending serial. Here is Episode 17. I was quite thrilled to find this tree, not even knowing it existed. It is a small tree found in this drier area, and is also called "The Scale-Leafed Ti-Tree". What is really strange about this tree is the very small size of the leaves which are just like tiny scales.
The tree can be fairly dense in the way the stems grow and is one of the habitats of Golden Shouldered Parrot. It produces tiny flowers that grow in small cream/yellow clusters at the tops of the branchlets. The fruit are clusters of typical melaleuca capsules that contain very fine seed. The tree is very restricted in habitat growing only in a area across central Cape York Peninsula.

People often say that 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder,' and I say that the most liberating thing about beauty is realizing that you are the beholder. This empowers us to find beauty in places where others have not dared to look, including inside ourselves.

Jan. 3, 2016: Tonight, the Chandelier Tree in Silver Lake had its lights on. The donation box was stolen about Dec. 15, 2015, depriving the owner of funds for his electricity bill.
Currently there are two very ugly barriers on the road known as the Marina and I am not sure as to why they are there but they may have something to do with crowd control when there is a match at the GAA stadium. I first became of the barriers when I discovered that Google Maps failed to gain access to the section between the two barriers. The area is attractive but it urgently some care and attention as it is badly run-down.
The Mariana dates from 1900 and at the time was later described as follows: "The Marina is a delightful, tree-lined promenade on the south bank of the River Lee, of which it commands some exquisite peeps. Easy of access, this promenade is a delight to visitors, and has been greatly improved in recent years, a bandstand having been provided; there are also seats and rustic shelters at intervals. Within easy reach of the park and racecourse."
Currently the Marina is in the process of being redeveloped as a public amenity. Demolition work on the old Showgrounds was completed late last year, paving the way for the construction of the multi-million euro project includes the redesign of the entire Marina, from the Shandon Boat Club to Blackrock, including grounds around Páirc Uí Chaoimh [GAA stadium] and the Atlantic Pond.
The tree outside my home with the lovely fall sky. Several textures, Kim Klassen, Raggedy Paper and Wax Fuzion.
which reminds me of the hoops series by JP (you need to click ENTER and look for it in his works. but it's so worth it)
