This was a Daily Paintworks challenge.  Mt. Lemmon is beautiful when the leaves change colors.  The skies are usually crisp, clear and blue.  The area has grown back quite a bit from the huge Aspen fire which engulfed the top of the mountain.

I passed by this farm after a hike in the wilderness area behind Lopez Lake. The dirt in this area is rich black, making these valley farms some of the most productive in CA. Vineyards and oak trees patch the hills.
