The small tree out front went from green, to a few yellow leaves, to leaves all over the ground in just a few days.
Our neighbors’ pear tree has started turning red.
The pecan trees leaves are turning as well.

Do you expect to get pecans?

Yes, but not this year. The drought in the area had an impact. I know they are producing since we have pecan trees growing in the fence rows.

I remember that when my parents owned property in Bon Secour, Al, they had collected pecans from a nearby neighbor.

When I was growing up, my mom would take the us (3 girls) to go pecan collecting. One of the properties my parents owned used to have a house on it, the house had fallen down, but the pecan trees were magnificent.

Lovely trees! The boxelder maple has been dropping leaves like mad lately–front yard is covered in them.

At LBJ National Historical Park – where we just were at – there were pecan trees. It is allowed to take one person’s day’s worth from the Johnson Settlement area (but not the LBJ Ranch.) However, like you said, it didn’t rain a drop the whole time we were there! I looked for pecans as I had never gotten one straight from a tree, and I love them. I found one! I have yet to crack it open and eat it. And I’m hoping if we ever return, maybe I can get some more. It will be fun having your own pecan trees!
