"Anyone who thinks fallen leaves are dead
has never watched them dancing on a windy day."
Shira Tamir
As we enter the last month of 2021 this week, our grounds are covered with fading leaves from trees that dropped them in their process to prepare for new life in the spring. The leaves don't just decay without purpose, but provide nutrients to the soil and plants. Piles of dried leaves can also mean hours of fun for pets and kids of all ages as they find creative ways to jump in and toss them into the air.

Often it is the simple things that bring joy to our daily lives.

Find a few joyful moments here in this issue and look for dancing leaves as you go about exploring our beautiful Upper East Side of Texas. — P.A. Geddie
