“Now Autumn’s fire burns slowly along the woods
And day by day the dead leaves fall and melt.”
And day by day the dead leaves fall and melt.”
William Allingham - Autumnal Sonnet
I woke up in the semi-darkness this morning, and by the quality of what light there was coming in the window I could tell the sky was overcast. A perfect day for an Autumn hike! I needed to walk on fallen leaves today, kicking through the piles and crunching them underfoot, the ultimate joy of the season. So after breakfast and the usual morning activities at the computer, I tied on my boots and headed for the Cumberland Valley Rail Trail. It was definitely a soul-clearing walk; here are some of the sights along the way.
