Mineral King in Fall, Part 5

Being Thankful for Fall in Mineral King

These leaves have been blown or rained or snowed off the trees for several weeks by now but I’m still coasting on the beauty from that weekend in mid October.

  1. Nance, nice to hear from you and happy to share my photos.

    The brief moment we experience color is glorious, but it is 1-1/2 hour away. I don’t want you thinking this is normal every fall right outside my door!

    I bet you are homesick for Washington – it is my favorite state, no matter what time of year I’ve visited.

  2. Jana,

    Thank you for sharing these beautiful photos! They make me homesick for Washington State, now that I live in Florida. So much inspirational living color right around you! How lucky you are.
