From a recent trip home from Peru. Apple trees, pretty much the last of fall color. The beech trees are still a little colorful, brownish. They hold onto most of their leaves through winter. The rattling of the dried leaves sometimes is the only sound you hear in the winter woods. Snow muffles every sound, pretty much. It's amazing how silent the world can be. And how noisy leaves on trees are.
the winter is like the desert. I discovered the silence of the desert. the drip of melting snow after snowfall in the desert in April, well... it's nice.
