Soon, very soon, I’ll get to those leaves. They’ve been neglected, but at least this year I have an excuse! 🙂
The shadows of the tree on the house caught my eye this morning,
as did the layers of leaves.
Life on the Bike and other Fab Things
Whether it's one simple yet somehow perfect day or a dreamed about journey finally realized, I never want to forget the joy of the moment or how fortunate I am!

The leaves will always come again, the most important thing is for you to get well! Blessings.
and I’m grateful for those blessings, Laurie. Thank you
we once read that each tree has upwards of 100K leaves. that’s a lot of raking for someone who should be resting. they’re just leaves, as always, great photos! xo LMA
Thanks so much, LMA! 100k leaves? No wonder I have mountains … my house is surrounded by oak trees 🙂
Love that last picture – it’s magical
You know, I put it last because I wasn’t sure how it would be received. I’m so glad you like it!
I agree! That one is wonderful! The colours and the focus are perfect.
I’m with dswidow! That last shot is magical. How did you do that?
As for the leaves, Meh… they will wait a bit longer. Just take it easy for now. 🙂
So happy that you like the last one … I wasn’t sure how it would be received. And yes, raking will wait!
Love the post and the shots LB. The last picture reminds me of my stoner days, like wow man. 😀
Dude! That’s so cool, man 🙂
LOL 😛
Sure, let the leaves sit where they are. You have an excellent reason for doing so and then an eye for putting them in their best light no matter where they are found.
Bruce … thank you. And I love that Gonzaga connection! Go Zags!
lol…awesome photos…the last in particular! Everything in good time…that includes raking the leaves…
Heather, you are the third person who commented on that last photo. I’m so glad people have liked it! And the leaves … they will wait.
The leaves can wait! You just keep getting better. I love the photos, especially the last one.
Glad you like the last one, too … it seems to have been the favorite today. It was a beautiful morning (despite the leaves 🙂 )
Your health comes first!
and thankfully, my health is improving!
LB, actually my yard doesn’t look any different, and I don’t have an excuse. Guess what? One of your fans is following my blog, thanks to you. Thanks for being a fan! Can’t wait til you’re back on the bike.
Oh how fun! These connections are wonderful and just another reason that I love blogging.
What I see is a whole lot of house product for the winter digs of the fury friends living nearby in the forest. Honestly, you’re just being a thoughtful neighbour. I expect the sun will come up tomorrow even if the leaves continue to carpet the yard. Sometimes we should just put ourselves on TOP of the ‘to-do’ list 😀 PS, that moss could be the start of a fab Fairy Garden in a canning jar….could be a quick, mindless project. I know I get a kick out of mine 😀 xoK
What an excellent outlook on the piles of leaves in my yard and patio. And isn’t the moss wonderful. I live on such a wooded, shady, moist lot and I have lots of moss around.
Sorry I keep getting so far behind – lack of computer time sometimes.
Your blogs are so detailed, I am sure you run out of time … the writing, the responding, and the attending to other blogs. I appreciate your time here, and be sure to sit back and enjoy some quiet sometime!
Thank you for being so understanding.
I love a good excuse not to do gardening.. I might have to get a bike 😀
Sounds like a plan to me!!
Possibly not a good one though 🙂
