I have some more thank yous--what fun going to the mailbox has been this holiday season! Thank you to ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) melyanna_65 for the fabulous card of our favorite plastic hobbits in their wee santa hats, and the trading cards, and the very cute fic. Thank you to dear mews1945 for the pretty sparkly card. And thank you to frodosweetstuff for the adorable F/S manip card, which was riches enough, but also the wonderful doll clothes--Bingo and Sam are so delighted--and the gaydar--about time I had some, too. (-; Gosh!
Back to the lake--I want to get us to the end of this set of fall pics this week before the year ends. I walked around the lake today since this weekend's rain washed most of the snow away. There's just so much green underbrush still not willing to relinquish this Rainy Year of Yay for Green Things. There are more kinds and shades of lush, gleeful moss covering the trees sending up luxuriant spikes of spores. And the holly trees are more full of berries than I remember seeing any year before--folk wisdom says that means we can expect lots more snow and cold this winter. At the end of it, I'm still hoping for an early, sunny, and riotous spring in reward for this dark, dreary year. But back to 2 months ago:
Here's a sweet gum tree cascading over the lake. I think that's willow oak still green in the foreground. At this point, that camera was picking up more light than my eyes were in the dusk.
( And another pic of the cascading sweet gum . . . )
