All the leaves are gone and the skies are grey...

Down here in.. ummmmm. Buckeye Country.. hehe.. we're pretty well in Winter mode too. The wind storm that came through early last week did in the last of the fall leaves. It's mostly shades of brown lifeless trees with a odd pocket of color that's hanging on somehow. It's MUCH colder too. Woke up to 38 degrees this morning!!

I still hope to get out when I can over the winter!!

Bummer! It's cold up here (high of 48), but the leaves are still hanging on. There's an oak down the street that's still green! And the sweetgums are gorgeous--some of them are bright yellow, some are bright red.

I hear ya. I'm from Indiana (not quite as cold as Michigan) but ut's really chilling down and making rides not as enjoyable. I still ride when I can in the winter but it's just not as good as cycling in better weather.

It's chilly, but it's not quite cold enough for me to break out the jacket without roasting. I think I need beefier base layers and arm warmers, maybe some long-fingered gloves.
