Yes..I love leaf crunch too. The smell of them is heady. Today I went out front to remove my Harris/Walz signs and there was a skiff of snow on my leaves and the sky is impossibly blue with the mountain ranges laced in white. I am choosing to take this awful time and better myself in many ways. Mental health, physical well-being, financial health. Suffice to say I will never allow that guy to be in front of my eyes or assault my ears. I hope to visit Wales someday. My genealogy efforts have revealed a whole line of Welsh ancestors from long long ago.

Such a beautiful post ! I love walking on crunchy leaves at this time of year. The trees are beautiful at the moment up here in Edinburgh, where, as in Wales, it rains a lot.

Well, Hari, thank you for this well timed reminder that hope is everywhere. The trees surrender their leaves each year without resistance. Here, we’re in a drought, so our leaves are extra crunchy. I’ll think of you while crunching. 💚
