Autumn in Beautiful Lakewood WA

There really is nothing quite like Autumn for beauty and color all around.  Lakewood has more than the usual of this beauty and color.  Here are a few pics I snapped on walks recently.



 Park Lodge grade school in the back ground.  Much of Lakewood has sidewalks encouraging walking to your destination.
 Leaves and color lining the side wak near Chase bank at 100th and Gravelly Lake Drive







 Our local Maples are a treasure, right along with our Oaks.






 Lakewood is plentiful with this variety of Oaks, which are endangered and rare elsewherre
 This inviting home is an example of the charming architecture and good care typical of our neighborhoods.  The homes look like they belong in their beautiful surroundings.



 Fall color at a rain garden.  This is an area which helps with run off, sustains local wildlife and does not need to be fed since it houses hardly local plants that do not require constant watering.

 The Oaks and Maples don't get all the fun.....
