October gave a party;
The leaves by hundreds came,—
The Ashes, Oaks, and Maples,
And leaves of every name.
The sunshine spread a carpet,
And every thing was grand;...
Miss Weather led the dancing;
Professor Wind, the band....
The sight was like a rainbow
New-fallen from the sky....

With my 78 year old uncle riding shotgun we just drove around the backwoods of northeast michigan to look for some color, which I found in bigger patches than I was seeing downstate in Hartland Twp!! Got a few shots under my belt!!
