My good friend Linda has been celebrating my ginkgo tree right along with me. As a matter of fact she stopped by today and picked up some leaves. She told me a few days ago that two of her favorite things are ginkgo leaves and dragon flies...so here you go Linda...this is for you! This little guy sits in the garden by my front door...and is quite content surrounded by a yellow blanket.
It snowed a little last night....so the carpet of yellow took on a whole new glow this morning. The fact that they fell yesterday...and there was snow today was a clear sign that the season has turned. 
There are still a few stragglers left on the tree....but with the temperature drop I'm sure not for long.
And the leaves are everywhere....on every side of my house....down the street....on the roof out every window and nested in every bush. It's a mess....but oddly comforting.
