Oregon’s Autumn Colors

Autumn is a glorious time of year with its vast array of vibrant and brilliant shades of red, yellow, gold and orange. The fallen leaves become delicately diaphanous after falling from their lofty canopy above, settling on the ground below, and disintegrating into the earth. It truly is a magical time of year.

These photos were all taken in Oregon.

Autumn is a time for comfort food, and this stuffed pumpkin I made for our Sunday lunch hit the spot.
