NC Highways and Backroads- Fall 2021

Seeing all the Fall foliage is one of the great perks in travelling around the surrounding counties to take pics for Mike Stainback's Appraisals. I take the interstate highways as well as numerous state  and county roads. They are beautiful all the time but they take on a special ambiance in the first week of November that lightens up the heart and soul.

I think it is God's way of saying that everything goes out in a blaze of glory on this earth. No matter what, every deciduous tree leaf is going to leave with a splash of orange, red, yellow, gold, burgundy, purple or some other shade before it gives up and falls to the ground. A little like us, I think, wanting to go out with a bang. and have our life remembered for the color we brought into others lives, and the happiness they shared as we traveled down life's highways. 

Here are a few such roads in North Carolina.
