"I have noticed that when chickens quit quarreling over their food they often find that there is enough for all of them I wonder if it might not be the same with the human race." -- Don Marquis, humorist and poet

Especially if a few especially greedy ones don't take most of what there is!





We thought we'd picked the last of the tomatoes about a month before we picked these on November 10.  It's been a very odd fall.  

Blowing leaves, and ocean-floor ripples in the clouds.

Japanese maple underneath ginkgos.

Same as before, from a different angle.

Maples.

Big leaves and small ones.  The tulip tree and oak were quite big.  The biggest maple -- pretty big.  The other maples were their usual size.  The ginkgo was small.  That very smallest item is a rose petal.
