Photo: The last tree of Fall

I have a feeling that this is the last view of a tree with golden leaves. Tonight I drove home from a meeting in a whirlpool of gold leaves. The wind lifted them four feet off the ground and swirled them around my car.

My street was already covered with gold fir needles. Gold was the color of the day. I think that bare branches will be the view on Friday.

Don't forget to clear the street drains. I've seen ducks swimming in the ponds on street corners.
