Oh the Glorious Leaves!

Oh the Glorious Leaves!

I am blessed to live on a property that has many trees - Maple, Pine, Oak, Hemlock, Walnut, Fruit Trees & more!

Many people might think that having trees on your property means work - but it is "good for you" kind of work.  You are outside in the fresh air, soaking in some Vitamin D and getting a good workout - upper body from raking & lower from walking the leaf filled tarp to the burn pile or the compost pile.  It's all good!

I have to admit that I was a little worried this year that I would miss the burn deadline.  The township that I live in only allows you to burn yard brush for 2 months in the fall - October & November.  This year the leaves hung on and didn't start falling until the beginning of November - all at once!  But thankfully my husband & I made the deadline - our yard is all raked up!

ENJOY the following pictures - all taken by me (Angie Ouellette-Tower).

  1. The pictures are beautiful. It's so much fun to tromp through the leaves and hear them crunch. It's one of the great things about fall.

  3. I enjoy gardening too. The leaves are so pretty aren't they. I wouldn't be without trees either.

  4. I miss this about my home. I live in the States and I'm originally from SC where the leaves change. This is my first fall in CA and it's not the same at all :(

  5. I see the beauty...but I also see work. However, my husband mowed them up this year, and it was much easier.
