The Streets are Paved with Gold.....


We have the loveliest Ginkgo trees in our town. They are usually fairly unobtrusive (except for this one!) and you don't notice them until sometime in November or early December when they turn a vivid yellow for a couple of weeks. Then they start to drop their leaves and there is a carpet of gold underneath each tree. Often they will be bare within a week. The drop on this one was accelerated by a small winter storm Thursday night.
