The scent of fallen leaves

I saw a seasonal pumpkin and Halloween stand being set up in Fresno, CA while it was still over 100 degrees outside. The calendar confirmed that it was indeed the end of September and about time for autumn.

Although the leaves change and fall in parts of California, there are few maples, and it just didn’t look or smell the same.

  1. Hello Mary, you once gifted me the scent of fallen leaves as a thank you card for letting you crash at my place in Baltimore one Halloween…I think 2011. All these years, I look at it, and have wondered if there is a way to buy a few of your works. Just so lovely.
