Leaves of Fall - Lin Frye

The winds seem to intensify this time of year, taking the colorful leaves on a final, rolicking adventure. As we walk, they fall around us, reminding me of large, bright snowflakes. They collect at our feet, on the shrubs, along the roadsides. On the paths, feet crumble these drying bits of autumn, and over time, the nutrients locked within their mighty cells, will go to feed the next generation of foliage. Amazing!

Hope your day is filled with autumn magic!

    What beautiful colours, this is so gorgeous Lin! We've seen the last of the autumn colours here in South Africa as summer is now truly entrenched with a big bang of a heat wave this week.

    Beautiful leaves Lin. I've always heard that you'll have good luck if a leaf lands on you and sticks. It's a good reason to go walking on a rainy day in the fall.
