Somehow, October got away from me. It has been nice Indian Summer weather but so very very dry. I spent a lot of time watering some newly transplanted shrubs and perennials. Daylight savings happened yesterday so now its dark at 5 PM. Ugh. The fall color was nice this year despite the drought.
The dahlias are dug now and put away for the winter. We are bringing in the hoses and patio furniture, emptying the planters, and cutting back the daylily and iris foliage. Slowly but surely winter prep continues. The season is winding down.

Are those sugar maples in the fourth picture and red maples in the fifth picture?
Sugar maples are the gold and orange and a japanese maple is the red
So, the fifth picture is also sugar maple, rather than red maple.
Tony the 5th picture with the very very red leaves is a Japanese maple – not a sugar maple.
