Autumn Joy

Do you feel the briskness in the air? Isn't it beautiful? Oh my gosh this is like...

look at how magnificent that is. I don't know if the video can pick it up. Can you see

that? It's so glorious. This reminds when I was back east with my mom and she would take

us to the pumpkin farm. It was in the Catskills upstate New York and it'd be cold like it

is today. This is crazy this is California, Los Angeles, winter type day. 

Let's go over here. I want to find more leaves let's go back over here. This makes me feel

like I did when I was a little girl. She'd sayd, "Noelle slow down." I would run, I just loved to run.

I didn't know where I was going I just wanted to feel like I was free like I was flying.

These have just fallen from the tree you can tell by their color, they're pretty damp. They

haven't been given enough time to fall from the tree. They should be this beautiful red,

burgundy color. I think it's getting too cold too quickly the weather keeps bouncing back and

forward and it's confusing the trees. Oh here's one. This is pretty close. This is beautiful.

And it feels so good. 

What I find amazing is that we're seeing the signs of a life cycle. This is the autumn of the

life cycle. It gives back to the earth so then it can nurture it and prepare the soil so then

when spring comes it keeps the ground warm, and it keeps the seeds warm so that when spring 

comes the fruit from the seeds will grow.

One of my favorite times of the year is autumn because this is when we can harvest the fruits

of our labor.
