It's still autumn!

To celebrate the continuation of this fine season, we went somewhere autumnal today.




The back of Boulder Community Hospital! (Don't worry, they have other things here than just the hospital).




The hospitals in New York don't look like this, even in autumn. They don't have these fun reeds.




Don't think I won't bite this reed. I will. I really will. I hope you are not thinking otherwise.




Chomp!




I told you not to think otherwise.




While you were busy thinking I would not bite this reed ...




... and maybe thinking about how Boulder is really clean and nice ...




... I was preparing to do one thing, and one thing only:




I was preparing to bite this reed!




(In autumn.)




One way to confirm that it's autumn is to have a look at my outerwear.




Mary gave me this pea coat.




It is just perfect when the leaves are falling.




See?




This place is great in autumn, but I first visited here in the spring of 2007.




Can you guess why?




That's right! I was born here.




That was a long time ago ...




... back when I was a kid.




Time flies when you're chomping on reeds and wearing pea coats, y'know?
