Photos: Morton Grove fall color festival

Who says you have to travel to the Upper Midwest or New England to enjoy fall colors? If you live in the Chicago area, nature's color show is just outside your door. Or in my case, my door in Morton Grove, Illinois. Each of these photographs were taken this week.

A bit further north in Linne Woods, the maples are even brighter.
