FALL FOLIAGE TOUR
A clear advantage of living in
the northeastern US is being able to enjoy four seasons. Spring holds the
most beauty when it comes to trees and shrubs blooming, but it's
Fall that presents that special combination of colorful fall foliage and crisp
air, all set against an awesome blue football sky.

Fall foliage tours in 2005 presented some of the most beautiful
autumn weather in recent
memory. Dry weather, accented by sunny skies and mild temperatures, created the perfect scenario for
any fall foliage tour.

Our preferred touring vehicle? ...a
motorcycle
of course!
We'll begin building
this webpage with some of the photos taken in Autumn of 2005, and add to this fall foliage photo collection in
the coming years.
