Yes, I have. Those are great pics...do you think that's accurately representative of Mass?

Unfortunately, the foliage in Boston doesn't usually peak until the end of October (the weather is tempered by the ocean air). There will be some color when you're there, but definitely not as much as in other areas of New England.
If you have the chance, you should definitely head up to the mountains of NH (about 2 hours by car from Boston). There will also be some nice foliage in western MA and of course in VT and ME as well.

Yes, they were taken in Ma. I believe. The farther north you go, the brighter the colors due to the colder weather. Each year the peak period changes depending on the weather that year. We first came to NE Oct 8 and it was perfect timing four years ago. |

My pics I posted are all genuine from Massachusetts. Western MA, in Chesterfield, Westhampton, Whately, Northampton. Beautiful New England where I am traveling and moving up to from Florida as of 7 am tomorrow.

Mine were from last fall when I was in MA. And in a few days from now, I will be taking a lot more when I get up there, I will be posting them for all to see. Since I am moving to the Berkshires this time, I will really get to take a lot of them!!! Look out for them! Want any of Florida??? Not too exciting.... Unless you like Palms.
