Heaven Beneath Our Feet and Above Our Heads

"Heaven is under our feet as well as over our heads." - Henry David Thoreau

The foliage colors in central Pennsylvania are what I would call "peak" right now. Look out any window, and you will see a profusion of beautiful shades of orange and yellow, and the occasional bit of red.

If you drive along any local highway, in any direction, you will see what looks like Grandma's patchwork quilt laid out upon the hills. The world is transformed, made more beautiful. Everything is golden.

And if you go WALKING among the hills, as we did on this day (we took a drive and then did some short hikes on the hills above Tyrone, not too far from home, and yes, that's my husband on the trail ahead of me), this is exactly what it looks like.

You will be walking on colors, you will be surrounded by colors, there will be colors galore above your head (yes, don't forget to look UP - see extra photos area). It's like living inside a fairy tale. Heaven has come down to Earth, right here, right now. Don't miss the show!
