Day Three Hundred Seventeen 2010

Leap!
"I love the leaves
I do not know why.
Is it their colors?
Or how they fly?
They crunch
And crinkle
Under my feet;
I pile them up
And take a leap."
~~Beth Paulsen

It don't get no better than that! I love the smell of dead leaves. That last pic is too cute :) Simple childhood pleasures.

Reminds me of playing in the leaves as a kid. I love the pics of Elijah helping with the leaves (then getting IN the leaves!) :) I always hated the leaf-sucking machine, sucking up all our fun!

That leaf sucking machine made a huge mess as it went by, sucking up the leaves--mulched them into bits then blew them back out the top of the truck. It rained leaf mulch all over everything. Mess!
