This might be the best weekend for colors in Calaveras county. I was going through Murphy's this morning and notice a lot of the red colors are out. The reds were late to appear this year, I don't no why but can only guess that maybe it has been a very mild fall. We have not got the cold yet.

Great for us because we got a lot of yellows early and now the reds. This is better because we are getting a slow transition into winter. That means the colors of fall are lasting twice as long.

Anyway come up and check it out, you will be amazed by the gorgeous colors up here. The town of Murphy's is a great place to start. Maybe stop and have breakfast or maybe lunch.

Good luck and have a great time!
