Happy Boxing Day

Most of the autumn color is gone now. What's left is hidden from view to all but the curious eye. I knew I needed a picture for my blog tonight so I walked with camera in hand.
The once colorful leaves now make up a crunchy brown carpet. You'd be hard pressed to sneak up on a deaf person this time of year.
The sun was low in the sky and when I walked up from the path in front of the barn, the trunk of an old hickory looked as if it were wearing a green velvet gown. I snapped this photo.
Tomorrow will be another beautiful day here. I think I'll catch up on the outside chores.
Happy Boxing Day.

  5. Ah yes and the remaining colours, reminders of as the leaves doth die, a new hope awaits through the winter and onto the rebirth that is spring.

    Wonderful words, wonderful photo, good sir. Happy Boxing Day.
