Yesterday was the perfect fall day for doing trail maintenance.
The fall colors are at their peak and the woodland creatures kept us company while we worked.
Squirrels, chipmunks and blue jays didn’t seem to mind us being in their neighborhood.
Lots of walnuts and acorns to keep the woodland residents fed on cold winter days.
Bear Creek Trail was yesterday’s project…more work on other trails to follow.
Being the caretaker of Green Valley is Just A Walk In The Woods.
Come Little Leaves by George Cooper
“Come, little leaves,” said the wind one day, “Come o’er the meadows with me and play; Put on your dresses of red and gold, For summer is gone and the days grow cold.”
Soon as the leaves heard the wind’s loud call, Down they came fluttering, one and all; Over the brown fields they danced and flew, singing the glad little songs they knew…
Dancing and whirling, the little leaves went; Winter had called them, and they were content; soon, fast asleep in their earthy beds, The snow laid a coverlid over their heads.
