Fall slowly comes to Starke Florida.

Now the trees haven't yet turned here at our winter home in the Starke KOA. And the weather is still very warm but the campground has closed the pool for the winter. That is always a sign that fall is here and winter is just around the corner. Many of the snow bird RV'ers have arrived and soon the park will be filled. Our monthly activities will soon start, with pool/billards, bingo, golf, cards, Saturday breakfasts, tours. holiday meals and cookie ex-changes.

As a surprise our friends, Sid and Jerry Bass decorated our park model's front porch. They filled our pots with bright flowers and little scare crows. The colors makes me fell a little more like fall in Wisconsin.

But nothing can compare to the maple tree at our former home in Silver Cliff Wisconsin. The leaves would turn a bright yellow and would last a full week or more.                                                   

Now our little maple here at our home in Starke which turns deep red in fall, and last for only a few days even that has not happened as of yet.

  So,

to brighten things up we have added some fall decorations to the inside of our little house. We put vines of maple leaves running along the tops of windows and cabinets. And a pumpkin that waits for halloween sit on a stand near the door. Although we only have a few little children here in the park, we pass out candy for trick or treat. So it is nice to decorate.
