Falling Leaves


It's once again the first day of Fall. The fields are donning their golden capes; trees are preparing for the season's final fashion show. The geese have had a whiff of the North Wind and are heading south. We've closed the cabin for the year; a big job and also a sad job. When we lock the door for the last time, it always reminds me of "On Golden Pond" when Katherine Hepburn says good-bye to the loons. Well, we don't have loons but we do have pelicans and gulls and cranes. Good-bye, birds. Good-bye, lake dog. See you next Spring. These snowbirds are on Arizona countdown!
