Here is a bit of home, the little bit of woods I have within walking distance to disappear in for a few moments as I walk to and from the boiler room every day. Was absolutely beautiful at the end of summer...very green and mysterious. Now I'm getting the wonderful array of colors that comes with fall, accompanied by the crunch of leaves under my feet. I love the fall. There is something intrinsically redeeming about it. The whole process of the leaves changing their color is not that they are losing their natural green tint, but they are shedding the sun-fed camoflauge of summer to reveal their true brilliance. Yes, they soon fall off and die, but only to allow the new leaves of the spring to emerge and bring a new beauty to the world.
