Seasons

Autumn growing up was all about piles of leaves....their smell, the way they sounded as they crunched beneath our feet.....
The most fun was raking them into enormous piles then jumping into the middle of them!  I loved watching them flutter about us as we made fun out of our yard chores.

Back east fall was a lot different than here in California!  I had to get used to the seasonal differences.
While I love the four seasons, Philadelphia's winter is brutally hard on people with bone conditions and stiff joints!

In that regard, the move to California was an excellent choice!

I'm keeping this entry short for today...so for today Fifty Five Is The New Seasons, each to be savored to its fullest!  Manga!
