As I sit here, my windows all open, looking at the blooming flowers in my garden, I cannot believe that this is actually being discussed on this board! Take a geography lesson Hockmir before you intimate someone is a liar! (last line of foliage report is Essex County.)


This is the report for Monday October 15th, 2007

South-western Ontario Region

The Owen Sound region reports the colour is now well past peak with considerable leaf fall. Inglis Falls and Harrison Park in the Owen Sound area still offer patches of red, gold and orange. The drive north of Owen Sound on Grey County Road 1 between Owen Sound and Wiarton is always nice during the fall. The Beaver Valley region south of Thornbury reports the colours now well past peak with muted brown, red and yellow remaining. Hockley Valley, east of Orangeville is reporting about 40% leaf fall with some areas of dull orange and yellow. There are several excellent lookout locations in the Beaver Valley as you approach the village of Kimberley from the south on Grey County Road 13. In the Hockley Valley region, Dufferin County Road 7 and the 3rd line of Mono offers a great fall colour drive. The Forks of the Credit Provincial Park near Belfountain offers beautiful walking trails The Elora and Fergus area is reporting the fall colour season is coming to an end with 90% leaf fall.
