The most intense fall experience I've ever had was in Cape Breton Nova Scotia...
I know it's a little off from the running theme here, but I had the opportunity to visit the cape three times in October; once in 2004, then in 2006 aqnd 2007.
Last year I took the time to drive the famed Cabot Trail, and I plan to return next year for vacation in october... it just wasn't in the financial and timing cards this year.
These are a few of the pics I took last year... it was absolutely intenese... the combination of the ocean, both on the quet side,a dn the rough side of the peninsula, and the evergreens, and such a variety of colors... I jsut can't get over it. It was pretty cloudy for most of the day, so these pics don't do true justice to the intensity of the colors.
