It’s a gray, overcast, little bit rainy Wednesday.
The locust leaves are falling like crazy. It’s such a messy tree in the fall. Lots of locust trees line the streets and fill the yards in our neighborhood. Locusts are a fast-growing tree and it looks like they were planted as the houses were built 30+ years ago. The planners of the subdivision wanted to have a neighborhood filled with large trees ASAP. The little golden leaves drag into the house and it’s a daily sweep to clean them up.
’Tis the season for pumpkin spice everything. The pumpkin spice popcorn display is the eye catcher at the Giant Eagle today.
