A golden leaf is released in grace, its sparkle heralding the quiet farewell of thousands to follow. This majestic Bigleaf maple—furrowed bark, moss-draped—whispers a truth about nature’s cycle: life, in turning, endures.

Take care, everyone 🫶✨💛🍃

A towering Bigleaf Maple tree seen from below, its trunk covered in thick green moss. The branches spread wide, adorned with vibrant green leaves, some tinged with yellow, signifying early autumn. One bright yellow leaf is highlighted as it drifts away from the tree in the soft, golden hues of evening light. The clear blue sky peeks through the dense canopy, adding depth and contrast to the scene.

A memory drifted in: my late mom’s favorite Doyo (song for kids). I couldn’t recall every word, but...
"...what if a canary forgets to sing? ...Let it float on a shimmering boat in the moonlit sea; it will sing again, its song remembered."
A tenderness I’ve longed for.
Take care, everyone 🤍🫶✨

you're not alone. Today I'm thinking a lot about my late big bro 🫶 ...it's probably because he loved autumn so much.

These tiny mushrooms are mighty little smile generators—such a splash of brilliance! 🍄

The first supermoon of 2025 is coming and it’s the legendary Harvest Moon! 🌕🌾🧪

On the night of October 6 going into October 7, the full moon will appear 13% brighter and 6.6% larger than a typical full moon. This happens because the full moon is at perigee, its closest point to Earth in orbit.
