I was feeling blue today, so in an attempt to shake it off, I went for a run. Here is what I saw:
- A display of autumn leaves so spectacular it took my breath away. In the middle of a green grove of trees stood one that had dropped a blanket of impossibly bright yellow leaves. It was as though a 100-gallon drum of yellow paint had spilled all over the ground. I stopped running to stare, and it was hard to believe my eyes.
- A man with a toddler in his arms, spinning around and around in a tire swing, their heads thrown back in laughter. He stopped when he heard someone coming. I wish he wouldn't have.
- A new skate facility with boys on tiny bikes and skateboards doing crazy circus tricks in the air.
- A surprise addition to a nearby park: an almost-finished fenced-in dog park with a separate area for small dogs, doggy drinking fountains, benches and trees.
- A rainbow across the stormy sky, the giant half-circle kind where you can see all seven colors.
I feel better now.
