turn, turn, turn

Never thought I'd see the day when I would be glad to pay three dollars per gallon for gas, but it came this weekend.

Friday night when I headed to my parents', the beans were still green in the fields, with one or two notable exceptions. Monday afternoon when I came back, they had mostly begun to turn. Lot of a difference a couple of days can make.

Here and there, also saw a few trees displaying fall leaves already. For the most part though, still green. It's not the uniform green of summer anymore though -- there's subtle differentiations of color now, hints of who will be scarlet or golden in another couple of weeks.
