Second Blog Of The 2018 Progression Of Fall Colors In Middletown, CT. Fall Has 
arrived in Connecticut, which means it is time for my Progression Of Fall Colors series I started eight years ago. This is a series I hoped to continue for many more years to come, and have been able to do so far. The first two years the pictures were of a farm which is only about a minute walk from my house. six years ago I decided to change the location for the 2014 Progression Of Fall Color Series to a lake about 5 minutes from my house on RT17. I tried that location for two years, but the colors were not as good as I expected them to be. Three years ago I decided to change locations again to a site on Lyman's Orchards in Middlefield, CT. But once again that site did not produce the colors I had hoped for, so last year I decided to keep it simple and do my Progression of Fall Colors blog of my back yard, and will continue to do so again this year.
The first picture above for this year's Progression Of Fall Colors series was taken a week ago, before the colors started to change. But this week, as you can see in the picture to the left, there is a noticeable change in color.
As I have done for the last nine years, I will post pictures of this same spot at different points throughout the Fall to show the progression of the Fall colors. It is a little early to get a feel for how the colors will be this year, but this second picture suggest we maybe in for a colorful Fall this year.
Fall is a beautiful time of the year in New England, and even though last two years were better than the previous years, they still were not what I had hoped for. I have become spoiled by the beautiful colors we normally see during the Fall, so I am hoping this year the colors are truly outstanding. My favorite colors are the trees with yellow, orange, and rust color leafs when they blend together.
Anyone planning to come to New England to enjoy our Fall colors at their peak, should plan on coming between the last two weeks in October to the beginning of November. It is still to early to get a feel for what the colors will be like this year, but I will be trying to show the progression of the trees as they turn colors throughout the Fall.
Fall Has Arrived In Middletown, Connecticut and I hope you follow my series of the change in Fall colors throughout my 2019 Progression Of Fall Colors In Middletown, CT.
