BRIAN NELSON, CNN ANCHOR: And I said, fears of a faded and drab fall season for New England have proven unfounded so far this year. Late summer rains and especially the drenching delivered by the remains of Hurricane Floyd have helped the hues, making for a lovely leaf season. CNN's Boston bureau photographer Bob Crowley shows us the colors right now.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Hi.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: How are you doing?</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: This is so pretty, walking through here. I would say it's my favorite place to visit in the whole United States, even though we live right here, just because it's got a little of everything. You can do so many things outdoors. There's so much nature, so much beauty.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Oh, it's little past peak.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE:: But it's still beautiful.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: IT's warmed up.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: We're in stove (ph).</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I'm not working.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: It's as if Monet has come and splashed color all over the mountains. That's how I described it to people in Chicago, is that somebody took their paint brush and just splashed colors all over the countryside.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We try to tell people to come look at leaves, they kind of look at you and say, are you little crazy? But until you come and actually see it, the colors are just unbelievable. Colors. We had little treat this week because we got white in the background, too because we got six inches of snow a couple nights ago. Now with all yellows, oranges and reds we get a little bit of white in there, too. Beautiful day.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: So, so pretty.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: You don't even have to appreciate nature to appreciate this, just open your eyes and marvel at the colors.</s>NELSON: And if you can't be there, we take you there
New England Fall is Lovely Leafy Season
