Thanks so much, Wind... I was just thinking about how the leaves were at the end of their life cycle for this year... and it seemed an appropriate time to re-post this one  ~ loving chipmunk hugsLyra |

Very apropos...and timely! We are still in fall, but the last vestiages, alas! Soon we shall all see Spring again..and we shall write of birth, and hope...and things to come!  |

Thanks so much, Karilea... I think its interesting the way the leaves change with the seasons... Here in Michigan, they are all off the trees now, except for the Pin Oaks which stay on all winter and fall off in March, right before the new ones start greening... I think each season has it's own unique beauty ~ loving rodent hugs from MichiganLyra |

Lyra, what an intriguing title--and as it turned out--very appropriate! I really enjoyed this biography! ~ sending warm angel hugs to the sweetest little rodent this side of the equator! Linda |

Lyra~ I really enjoyed this. It's like the trees put on a big show for us each Fall before Winter takes it away and Spring brings it all back to life for us to enjoy each year...Paul |

Thanks so much, Linda... Leaves really do have biographies, don't they? What I find most fascinating is that they are at their most beautiful when they are dying. ~ loving rodent hugsLyra |

Thanks so much, Paul... I guess that is the job of trees... Ever since I have been old enough and lucky enough to own a house, I have lived in the woods.... as you can probably tell... I love trees ~ hugs and acornsLyra |

Ahh, I'd like to see the autumn colours again...but all is covered in white here now. Thanks for the reminder of how it looked last week. I'll have to keep the memory of it, til the leaves come again in spring. You can never win or lose |
