Leafy leafy leafy

Well, Fall has fallen here in Leavenworth - and all within about 5 days. We have leaves in our front yard that are already about 15 inches deep. We love our trees, indeed we do. But ... this time of year, they make quite the mess. And what is even worse is that all the trees in the entire neighborhood are apparently aiming at my front yard.

I started to rake, but it is so windy today that I was getting nowhere. Besides, I fly to D.C. tomorrow and won't be back until next Friday - maybe by then the Leaf Fairy will come and clean up the yard.

I have not been a total slug, though. I filled my 5 birdfeeders and I've put away clothes. But, I should be doing a bit more. So I'll go now, and attempt to assuage my very Catholic guilt for having a messy house!
