Leaves, crunch, rake, crunch, rake

























What a glorious Fall weekend. Chilly mornings and warm, balmy, sunny afternoons. We're talking high 70's! Just perfect leaf raking weather.
















Loving this Japanese Maple tree!















These bright, crispy yellowy ochre jewels are so much fun to crunch beneath your toes~


Is this not the most lush purple velvet!
I am so ready to get out my paintbrushes
and paint these rich fall treasures.

(poor guy has been broken and glued
back together at least once)

We have a Japanese Maple right outside my computer room window, and it is such a great little tree.

Wow, that one photo of your feet is too cool. Looks almost like your flying. And the colors are yummy!
