The first batch of fall colors

The maples are always the first to go. Julie and I went for a walk this morning and you could see large patches of color.  The maples, aspens, and oaks seem to go in waves and even those waves are separated by elevation and direction of the slope.
Not spectacular, but it really makes it feel like fall.  Thankfully, our temperatures are still hitting the 70's every day and it doesn't look like it will change for at least another week.  No snow yet!
We did run across a few trees that were just spectacular.  I'm hoping to get some nice color this week up in the Tetons.  I hope their aspens are ahead of ours.
