fall leaves


No, I did not pull over today to take this. I took it a week ago infront of Erika & Jons.

To get to and from class I drive a stretch of road from the gates of Quantico to the QFD station. Normally this is a boring drive, small housing complex, trees, side street, trees, golf course, trees... you get the picture, not too interesting. But today it was gorgeous. I thought the leaves had finished turning colors a week or two ago and I was sad it was over. Thankfully I was wrong. The trees on that stretch were absolutely beautiful today. Gone are the green summer trees, instead a gorgeous rainbow of yellow, gold, orange, and red. It was so pretty. I just wanted to pull over to the side of the road, stand there and admire, then take some pictures. But I did not. Because remember what happened last time I pulled off the side of the road for a picture?

I've been feeling this way all week as I have been driving around. I just want to stop and soak it all in. Alas-I never have my camera with me.. so I keep driving!
