Our fall leaves in my city and the surrounding Dallas, Texas area just showed up bold and pretty about 4 days ago!

This oak tree is one I spied on my walk yesterday!
I just wanted to focus on all of the different shades of red, orange and yellow leaves.
This is my Red Oak that my son and I planted with his Cub Scout Den when he was 6 years old!
We planted the acorn in a large pot and there it stayed for about 10-12 years.
The poor tree was stunted from being in a pot!
Anyway, when we had to cut down a silver leaf maple tree that was at the end of it's life in our yard; that opened up a spot for this red oak to be planted on the corner of our property on one of our side yards.
So this tree is now about 18 feet tall and 22 years old now and has happily been putting down roots and is a great tree for providing shade and shelter for the neighborhood squirrels and birds.
Also more oxygen for animals and people. :)
If I had more land, space I would plant several trees a year!
So sorry if these photos took a long time to upload on your computer or phone, but I just didn't want to make them smaller and leave off some details I wanted in these photos!
Have a Blessed Day!
