Autumn, and I am no Longer a Kid!
I spent my childhood in a tropical country, temperature all year round fairly constant. Never really gets cold there. One major difference is in the types of tree found. Trees there drop a few leaves every day and these, in towns, tend to be swept up daily by women who consider the paths and roadways have to be kept clean. October in Britain came as a complete shock. I thought "How could the trees in the UK be so damned untidy?" But the leaves here are not wasted: kids of all ages wander along, kicking up the piles of dead leaves. I never had the opportunity to do this as a kid back home so yesterday was happily playing in the fallen leaves when two girls about ten years old told me to clear off. I was playing in "their" leaves. "You are not a kid, leave our leaves alone". I was devastated. Anyone else think playing in leaves is fun, even without a unicycle? Picture is Autumn in my garden, if it attaches properly.
