>Wild Wind
>The weather is unsettled today, going from thunder to balmy breezes within an hour. Now the evening chill has taken over and wind is shaking the autumn tinged leaves from the trees. Torrential rain kept me from walking this morning but I took this shot right before dusk when the weather suddenly turned mild. I’m trying to write work that matters and some days I’m not sure what is relevant in a constantly changing world. I try to teach the way I live, with eyes open and senses keen. There is much yet to discover. I love driving home under a canopy of brilliantly colored leaves. Today the branches were swaying as if to push me forward–go here. I have always liked extremes in weather because it shakes me out of complacency. I notice icicles hanging or snow swirling or today, a wild wind animating trees and strewing the ground with riotous leaf confetti.
