Fall Leaves In Oak Glen On Thanksgiving Week: Patch Photo Of The Week

BANNING, CA — What is more lovely than Oak Glen in the fall? Especially over Thanksgiving week. This picture was taken in the foothills of the San Bernardino Mountains, at an elevation of about 4,700 feet, he says. The trees are turning brilliant shades of red, gold and orange while the grass remains lustrous and green.

We thank Dr. Roger Seheult of Banning for sharing his photograph with Patch.

The Thanksgiving weather this week will remain temperate and lovely before temperatures dip and another storm arrives within the next 10 days. For now, sit back and drink in all those shades of fall foliage right in our own backyard.

"Who says you can't have seasons in Southern California?" Seheult said of the photo. "We all really need to make time to go outside."
