  The photo was taken November 1 at our house. I love the vibrant orange of the changing leaves. It's one of the the things that's amazing about this time of year... nature's canvass.

• Words From Walt

  Stop this day and night with me, and you shall possess the origin of all poems; You shall possess the good of the earth and sun—(there are millions of suns left;) You shall no longer take things at second or third hand, nor look through the eyes of the dead, nor feed on the spectres in books; You shall not look through my eyes either, nor take things from me: You shall listen to all sides, and filter them from yourself. ~Walt Whitman
