But it is! September. I won't even ask where the summer has gone, because I know. I traveled it away!!!
The leaves on the black walnut are yellow and falling - the first tree to lose it's leaves in the fall and the last to fill out in the spring. The walnuts are whizzing to the ground and every now and then one hits the roof and I jump! Sounds like a big rock when it lands and bounces down to the ground.
I love this season even thought it gives me a wistful feeling... When I was younger it was my favorite time of year but now I think it parallels my life's seasons a little too closely...
And then there is the whole leaf raking thing - haha!!
