An oak sapling stands in front of a soccer field at James Monroe High School in Fredericksburg City, Va., on June 13, 2023. Husband and wife, Carl and Anne Little began the nonprofit, Tree Fredericksburg, after receiving a grant to plant trees around a playground near their home. Since then, the nonprofit has had over 500 volunteers helping to increase tree canopy in Fredericksburg. The Chesapeake Bay Program released an Urban Tree Canopy Strategy in 2015 that aimed for a net gain of 2,400 acres of tree canopy in urban areas of the Bay by 2025.

Even through December, Santa Barbara has some brilliantly colored fall leaves. I took this photo during one of my runs, and was grateful to stop for a moment and take a break from the never-ending hills.
Santa Barbara, California, U.S.A.
After taking a short jaunt, my bestie wandered off while I propped myself up under these trees to rest. These two had grown together for so long, their branches had intertwined. Rubbing and hugging, the music of their limbs as the wind blew through was enchanting.
