On Sunday I took a trip out to Lost Maples State Natural Area which is west of Fredericksurg near Vanderpool on F.M. 187. Rumor had it that the color change would not be very vibrant this year. Wrong! There were pockets of deep reds, oranges, yellows and browns. Autumn colors were there in all their splendor. The sun came out from behind the clouds in the late afternoon and rippled off the water and magnified natures colors. This made for a truly majestic setting for hiking, taking photographs, chatting and taking in the beauty of the Texas Hill Country. I don't know how long the color change and leaves will last but I can assure while it is here it is picture perfect.
