Five, Six, Pick up Sticks...

Did a little yard work with the hubby this afternoon.  Picked up about half a pick up load of sticks and took them out to the compost pile.  Ev is cutting the grass, hopefully for the last time this year.  Our trees are all going to start to turn soon here.  Some are already turning.  They are so pretty.  I think this year is going to be a short year for the pretty colors, since we had such a hot and dry summer.  Our one Maple tree dropped a ton of what we call 'helicopters'.  They were all really really dry and very small.  I would say they were about a third of the size that they usually are.
