The End is Near...for the LEAVES!

My oh my what a difference a week makes!  Last weekend was WET and while a lot of leaves had fallen, the trees seemed to have most of their leaves in tact.  But, we have had some colder weather push through and it seems like most of the leaves have now fallen.   Today was a SUNNY and DRY day, but VERY brisk.  When we woke up this morning it was 30 degrees, and it took a WHILE before it warmed up above freezing!  The high was only supposed to be mid-40's today, and we're sure it didn't exceed that by any means.

Look at all of those leaves on the ground.  You can see most of the leaves are on the ground ready for raking!


This shot shows you that the trees near the trail have lost all of their leaves too! 


And of course, here's Indy -- laying down on the job.  It figures!  She is supposed to be helping!  At least she is being a good dog and just hanging out with us!


Jared with the "ain't this just loads of fun" look on his face!  He is really making those leaves pay!
