Fall Colors

I noticed the pictures on a fellow blogger's site about fall colors, and that reminded me of a trip I took while my blog was lost.



I spent the week in Vacation Land. I spent a day in the Poconos, and visited a hospital there. I was traveling with B and he asked me if I thought they had a heart shaped bathtub at the hospital. I told him probably in the cardiac unit.



We had time to travel to and from the meeting in daylight. That is a luxury that seldom happens. The colors were just starting, and I could tell it would be beautiful. The next week we were at an account in the area, and our flight to Philadelphia was cancelled. We drove instead, right through the Poconos mountains, and the height of color. I have never seen reds so bright. The oranges and yellows were subtle, and there were still greens in plenty.



On the plane this week I read the airline magazine and found out that the Poconos region is one of othe top ten color spots in the country. I couldn't agree more.



The next day I was in Roanoke Virginia at the foot of the Great Smoky mountains, surrounded by still green ski slopes. On days like these I think that I could spend the entire day in a laboratory (usually with no windows), and appreciate my job.
