Default Time for 'Fords in the Fall' 2022

These have always been a favorite seasonal thread of mine. I'm a native of the Evergreen State but did some years in Massachusetts in the late '60s and early '70s. Never got over those Fall colors. I planted a maple tree on my place about 30 years ago, but it's kinda hard to park under. For the most part the dead grass will have to suffice for my Fall background. Our Western Washington weather has been sunny and dry with a mere .3 inches of rainfall since June 21. Here's my Fords in the Fall.

After a long rest over a month in the shed I finally got the Merc out this past weekend for a few autumn leaf shots. A bit late for the best of it but nice on the back roads.

Careful Mark, that's a slippery slope! And who doesn't love a covered bridge! This thread is making me want to go to Dunkin Donuts and get a pumpkin spice latte. But it's probably 5 bucks, and then there's the plane fare...... Some pics with pumpkins in them would be fine.

It's not a sunny day today so the colors aren't that brilliant, but I pulled my car out of the garage and took a picture with our big maple in the background.

Looks like everyone of these Fords are still "earning their keep". Just what OL'Henry had in mind.
