Wilco and Uncle Lyndon

The dapper gentleman walking a ways down the path is my Uncle Lyndon, who was kind enough to put up with me randomly throwing myself on the ground and taking pictures of leaves.

Jeff Tweedy's brilliant lyrics happen to make me think of the bright falling stars that are autumn leaves, and the heavy feet that trod them into the ground until they are the new path.

simon van booy and twisty bark

Simon VanBooy makes me want to lay in the middle of a wide open plain and let life drift around me. This is from the book I wrote up a while ago.

The tree was on a hike I took recently. I love the movement in the branches.
