The start of Fall

I am greatly disappointed in what the French call pumpkins in French.



....

Anyway, hopefully this coming fall season will have many pumpkins & cheery moments for all of us!
I remember as a child when my mother would pick me up from school with winter peeking on all of us with her gentle, but intentional gaze.
Those days we would walk around the park, & the scenery would paint itself. The plum trees & their bloody leaves would calmly shade the now resting leaves of yesteryear.
