Save your pity

After talking to several people today, I guess some had the perception that my trip didn't deliver as I had hoped.  On the contrary.  I think I made the mistake of making some assumptions before I left that it would be the same great experience I had last year.  It was still a great trip and experience, just not the same.  And as for color, even though I got lucky last year and hit the peak color of the season, this year was by no means shabby. Tonight's post is an example of just some of the color that was around.
