OK. Things are looking up I hope. [View all]

Just spent about 90 minutes blowing leaves and my spine hasn't turned to dust yet. We'll see what happens.

It could have been a mistake to do that...we'll see.

Black Walnut and Silver Maple. Tons of leaves.

I like fall, because the wasps disappear, and the air is crisp and invigorating.
