Killington Peak
September 10, 2008

With all the hub bub about the presidential campaign on the news, and the local political campaigns heating up, it is refreshing to turn the TV off during the day and just go outside. And what a beautiful place Killington is this time of year.

Everywhere you look, change is in the air. The deep summer greens of the trees are starting to give way to a warm palate of red, orange and yellow. It is currently more pronounced in the early morning and just before sunset, when the sun is at a sharp angle to the countryside. But even at mid day, the color display is hard to ignore.

We still have a few weeks to go before we approach peak fall colors. But from the early hints we are seeing all around Killington, once again, fall in the mountains should be very pretty.

Where ever you may be, keep it in the fairway (and watch for falling leaves).
