hickory hill: FALL IN HICKORY HILL , WATKINSVILLE, GA - 11/02/11 10:33 AM

Yesterday I was out walking our Jack Russell, Sadie, and just had to take pictures of a few of the beautiful trees in my neighborhood, Hickory Hill, in Oconee County.  I'm not sure if this fall is especially colorful or we just forget how awesome fall can be right here.  It isn't even necessary to go to the mountains to enjoy the leaves this year.  I thought I'd share some of the trees with you.
