“Autumn, the year’s last, loveliest smile.”  William Cullen Bryant 

This is actually the calm before the storm.  The weather forecast is for record rainfall over the next few days.  We need it, as it’s been a very dry summer.  So I’m out enjoying the beauty that is autumn in my yard.  As you may have noticed from previous posts, I am fascinated by my Katsura trees.  I find them stunningly beautiful.  This photo is taken under the biggest one in my yard.  I love the carpet of leaves and the feeling of solitude and tranquility.  

I am very lucky to live where I live, to have experienced all I have in my 60 years of living on this earth.  The good and the bad.  It’s all brought me to this moment, this hour, this day . . . to be all I am.  

Life is good!  I’m enjoying these moments while I can . . .
