Beeched

Yesterday I passed a woman busy cleaning up the leaves from the two big beech trees in her front garden. A thankless task as today there were loads more on the path and her garden.

I reckon a better policy is probably to wait a few days and hope the wind helps out.

The tones of autumn are lovely and even more so after a good summer (in growth terms) when there's lots of sugars in the leaves that the tree hasn't needed to utilise. That said, I wish I could either fast forward or else hibernate until spring!
