Boom! Autumn colors taking center stage in the suburbs
Sometimes the seasons sneak up on you.
One day you gaze out your window and everything still looks green. The next, you spot the faintest touch of color in some faraway trees. And then, boom! Autumn explodes with an incredible mix of reds, yellows, rusts and oranges.
Then, just when it seems fall might last forever, a cold wind blows, the leaves scatter, the color disappears and winter sets in.
