You know what, Kenneth? Interesting that you should write this. Someone told my daughter at school that she shouldn't jump in a pile of leaves because you never know if there's a pointy stick in there. I mean, GEEZ! Kill all of life's fun, why don't you?
I'll have you know that I was a bad, defiant parent: I didn't even *check* for sticks!

I would have told her she shouldn't jump into a pile of leaves because you never know if liberal is in there.

Re: Autumn
Ursula, burn that picture into your mind's eye. It will serve you well for many years.
I hope after she was done you burned that pile of leaves. The best smell on God's green earth.

Re: Autumn

"...burned the leaves"?
Geez, where do you live? In the Czech Republic or one of those loonie libertarian places?
Where we live, you get the gas chamber for that...

Re: Autumn
I wish I were six years old with a pile of autumn leaves to jump into. God has given us a beautiful world.

Re: Autumn
Are those pigtails or mouse ears? Quite a leap, to get that much gravity in action.
I'm just trying to figure out how to keep the devil horns on my basset (Cavea Trifecta Smith) this year. Probably just do like last year and tell the kids "she's the evil killer demon dog, FROM HELL!" And then slurp down some bourbon whilst sitting in the lawn chair. Oh, and there's candy, too. From strangers.

Re: Autumn
Hard to believe you can actually photograph joy. But you did, Ursula. And it's more than a photo, because I can hear those leaves, and smell them, and almost feel them crackling and giving way.
Toy R Us is full of toys and games and plastic nonsense. Leaves, though, are free for the raking and jumping. Thanks for a great picture and a few moments of memories flooding back....
Re: Autumn
What Rob said. Joy.

Re: Autumn
To be a child and rolling in the leaves, what a beautiful photograph. How do we recapture such feeling once we are all grown up and full of too many other concerns?

Re: Autumn
Jump in the leaves! They're dirty and smelly and probably a little wet. If you're like me you'll probably sneeze a lot, too. It's great!
Re: Autumn
Adorable and heartwarming!

I second that. Just go, jump in the leaves anyhow. So what if you're a grown-up?
Mind the chiggers, though.

Re: Autumn
Awwww. Reminds me of about 30 years ago when our two little girls.... snif.
We did have fun Saturday, though. There are miles of trails in the woods around our house, and we took our puppy for a long walk, where the trees hugged both sides of the path so that you couldn't see any houses anywhere, there were glimpses of lake and streams through the branches, and the paving was totally invisible because you were kicking through 6 inch depths of leaves. Charlie's (15 lb Shi Tzu) legs were barely long enough to walk, and he had a constant leaf beard.
Ursula, send us your little girl, and we'll bring her along!
