the search for fall leaves ...

Mother Nature usually celebrates autumn by getting out her 'good crayons' and coloring the trees with magnificent reds, oranges, yellows, and even the browns ... this doesn't happen so often in the desert.  Here we go from light green to beige/sand pretty quickly (unless water is supplied in great abundance) ...

Hubby and I decided to take a trek to the north country and see what MN (Mother Nature) did.  Turns out, not so much.  At least not where we were looking.  Turns out there are a lot more evergreens in northern Arizona than anyone would have realized.

Maybe next year we'll go someplace else to search.
