When Becky and I were trying to come up with October ideas I told her leaf bouquets would be fun except many of our members don't live in an area where they get have hardwoods and get color.

Becky asked me to do a tutorial on leaf bouquets Rolling on the floor laughing laughing because my bouquets are throw it in a vase Big Grin

So I took a short walk around this morning and did some photo's as we have rain moving in. It's still a tad early for peak color here in the southern mountains but this is what I took today.
