turning of the leaves ...

It has been a wild ride for the leaves this week! It is the end of November and the usual is grey on black. Naked black trees standing against grey mist. This year summer pushed way into fall. The early trees have dropped their leaves but the stragglers were still holding on until Wednesday where it was raining buckets. While crushing numbers to get vendors paid you could hear the study hard rains. A rough go driving home. The leaves could not hold on any more. Thursday dawned a simple weather day until the evening where the snowflakes started fly. A nice soft blanket was there Friday morning. Nothing to keep it but a nice changing of seasons. Winter is here!!!
