Every year our yard is covered in inches of leaves from ours and our neighbor’s trees. We don’t get too worked up about them, and the effort to clean them up is more for the boys than anything else… Who doesn’t love a great Leaf Pile? Especially one taller than you!
And now, as my Comp II class studies poetry – some E. E. Cummings & leaves…

My mom hates squirrels… So, I knew I had to dedicate these pics to her. :P
We have some very large squirrels here in Winfield – just scroll down to see! :)

I leave for Kaw City by 7:05 a.m. most mornings, so I was getting used to starting my day when the moon was still up and having a beautiful sunrise to watch on my way to work almost every day. Then, when I got home, the boys had the time to play outside and run around or ride bikes until I got dinner ready.
Here’s some photos I took while driving to work last week. I can’t get over what a pretty morning it was. These are before 7:15 a.m.
Now, about 7:25 a.m. – and I actually stopped to take a few. :)
:) It was still a pretty drive after that, but it started out prettier than even pictures can describe. Jermie doesn’t believe me, but none of the pics are edited – all straight off my cell phone. :)
So, to end the rant – although I appreciate the concern for school kids who are walking and riding to school in the early mornings, I also have my gripes about daylight savings time. I would much prefer to leave when it’s dark and come home to plenty of light than the opposite… or so I tell myself when I come home to boys who’ve been cooped up all day… But I guess in a few weeks when everything’s frozen I’ll be glad to leave when it’s practically daylight out… even if I do miss all the pretty sunrises… I suppose it evens out. I’m just glad I didn’t miss this one before DST ended – or started – whatever.
