Haven’t really gone anywhere to intentionally see the Autumn colors since last month’s trip to Flagstaff. Then got lucky with some color in Prescott Valley a few weeks ago.
After seeing a friend’s photos of a touch of Autumn colors like a crown dressing this Cottonwood lined drive to Hidden Springs Ranch in Peeples Valley I just had to check it out.
Had thought about continuing the drive to Skull Valley but changed my mind.
When it comes to colors, I definitely gravitate to sunsets.
Sure glad I have this Weaver Mountain view at the end of my Yarnell driveway.

Have enjoyed several nights of colorful shows.
Even have a few flowers still blooming on the Sages outside my door. The Cottonwood at the edge of my yard is barely showing a change to Autumn colors. Maybe when I return from a mini vacation this week there will be more local Autumn colors.
Look for me standing on a corner. 
Our leaves are almost all down!
Being you’re so much further north I am not surprised.
Seeing you aren’t a fan of flatbed Fords…
Have fun in Winslow!
Are you kidding, I Love Fords. Drove them most of my adult life. But now, I love my Dodge.
The fall colors are great to see, but your sunsets photographs great. Trust you’ll find some colors worthy of your camera on your mini-vacation.
I do love sunsets.
It takes a lot to beat a good photo of a sunset and you seem to have them as good there as we remember them in RSA. Love that dragon and the deep red one. Hope you have a good week Diane and Nigel
I agree, Arizona sunsets compete with RSA.
Another set of beautiful pictures. Love that first landscape and the beautiful beautiful skies. Mini vacation – sounds good!
Thanks. It is pretty here, but also nice to see something different.
We’ve definitely been shorted on the fall colors this year on the east coast. Love the crowned cottonwoods – very desert-y 🙂
I thought the east coast was known for fall colors.
It’s all incredible — but to have that mountain (and that sunset) view from your own drive way is beyond amazing!
The Weaver Mountains have provided a marvelous view for many years.
