These photographs were taken during the first weekend in October, 2005.  On the way to Albany, New York, it rained "cats and dogs"; and was fairly dreary for most of the weekend.  The leaves have started to change, and in a few weeks, the northeast should become a "sea" of reds, yellows, and oranges.
