October 31



I passed this tree last week loved the way the leaves were piled up.  I suspect some kids were having fun raking them into a big pile around the tree.  Regardless of how they got there, they make a nice picture!

The kids in my neighborhood like to do this with both leaves and snow and them jump right in the middle. I just let them until all the leaves fall and then my good neighbor mulches them up with his mower. The snow drifts and sledding can be a bit hard on the grass, but I enjoy seeing the kids play and am glad they feel that they are welcome in my yard. A great picture of fall.

The leaves on the tree are beautiful, but so is that big pile around it. I could jump right in there!

Wow - that is really one big pile of leaves, and makes for a beautiful picture! (I'm just glad I'm not the one who needs to bag them). Beautiful shot!

That is a great picture, lots of pretty colors. I guess Sandy didn't come far enough to blow them away. :)

That tree is gorgeous. I don't think I've ever seen a pile of leaves that big! Let's hope a wind storm doesn't pass through!
