A favorite part of fall

Each year in fall our Sugar Maple Tree catches fire. Its the main fall attraction of the neighborhood because there aren't many trees like it in Ponca City. We've had newstrucks stop and take pictures, photographers come do photo shoots, kids stop to pick up the brilliant falling leaves, and people craning their necks to stare as they drove by in cars. We didn't plant it, we don't make the colors, but we sure do love the tree too. When people stopped to ask if they could photograph it, I would say, "Sure, isn't it beautiful, please enjoy it with us. "

Your tree is beautiful. Don't tell me this is a recent picture. All our brilliant trees that we have are gone. Sad!!
