This has been an odd kind of year here where we live. It began with excessive amounts of rain and is ending with an extended dry spell with one or two freeze periods. All of which hurt both plant and animal so our trees suffered extensive damage and will be in trouble this winter. Nothing is turning color like it should or normally does. Our leaves look more like discarded pieces of leather or felt.
Blue Bell Hill, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States
Dan Allen lives in Philadelphia's Blue Bell Hill neighborhood. He eats a lot of cheese, drinks a lot of beer, and thinks that you should too. He also loves to write and talk about these and other things pertaining to good food and drink. As much as possible, he follows a locavore life style, meaning that most of what he eats, drinks, and writes about is local to Philadelphia and environs. (By the way, he tends to go on and on about all this, so unless you have a lot of time on your hands, it's best that you not get him started.)

I love this time of year too. There's something about the fall air that makes me feel happy! This is a lovely shot.
