Autumn in the Neighborhood

Autumn in the Neighborhood

On Wednesday and Thursday mornings Bella and I braved the damp and took some lovely walks around the neighborhood. She only protested a little when I put the rain cover on the stroller. I collected colorful leaves as they caught my eye and handed them to her as we went. She’s almost as enthusiastic about them as I am.

When we got home I spread our collection on the porch to take a picture, thinking they would look nice against the worn boards. It was a tough shoot, though. Every time I’d lay some leaves down, Bella would pick them up and put them in the empty flower pot. But I did manage to get some nice photos.

I found this branch of maple leaves and brought it home to stick in a bottle. Sadly, they look rather droopy in the house, not bright and cheerful like I’d imagined.
