The colors are especially vibrant this year and I thought I'd pass a few of them along for you to enjoy. They are from Grandview Drive, Forest Park Nature Center, and others from Matthiessen State Park near Oglesby, Illinois.
When President Theodore Roosevelt visited Peoria on October 10, 1910, he called Grandview Drive the "World's Most Beautiful Drive." Grand View is revered as one of the most beautiful drives in Peoria because of its breathtaking views of the river and the many historic and remarkable homes lining it. See if you agree (although most of these pictures are "homeless").
This is the east entrance to Grandview Drive just off Route 29.
