Happy Halloween!

The trees in my yard are bare, but the ground looks like "leaf-ageddon". The aftermath of a tree explosion. Several trees, in fact. A forest's-worth of leafage on the lawn!

Oddly, the tree horizon visable from my library window is full of color. The neighboring tree line between the houses across the street (and their direct neighbors to their rear) still have gloriously colorful trees. Leafy lollipops of oranges, reds and rusty yellows, mixed with deep green spikes of evergreens here and there.

There's no explanation for any of it, so I won't even try to wrap my head around it. Instead, let me offer this photo for your amusement, in honor of the day.

May your trick-or-treaters all be wee ones, and your TP experiences be easy to clean.
