The best thing to do after eating some muffins is head to the park.

Here in the South autumn is never as spectacular as is in New England. The colors here are neither as intense nor as long lasting. But still, it is our autumn, our season, our reminder. And this is by far the most colorful year of leaves that I've seen in 15 years.

I've spent a good deal of time watching this particular tree next to the swing sets. I've watched it progress from just a faint hint of red at the outer fringes, to something more, as it the red borderline crept toward the center, eventually swallowing the whole tree. The green is pushed inward, back down into the trunk where it will lie waiting through the cold of winter.

The day I took these pictures I noticed that this red progression inward also happens on the individual leaves, which start with a bit of red at edge and slowly get swallowed up into redness before they fall.

These images are a couple of weeks old though. We braved the cold and wind again this morning. The tree was bare. Winter.

And so it goes.

Creamed Corn

- November 27, 2014 - - -

I am thankful for my family, for electricity, clean water, vaccines and everything else that keeps me and my family alive, that allowed us to evolve out of the tree canopy, walk out in to the tall grass and keep walking, slowly on, for millennia. And who will hopefully keep walking slowly, long after I am gone.

I'm also thankful for the web. This right here. The best form of communication and non-local connection that we've come up with since the beginning of time. I am very grateful to have my health and thankful for the privilege of being born into a life that allows me the free time and opportunity to partake in the web. I am thankful for the wealth of human knowledge, understanding and connection that that exists out here between the 1s and 0s and corporate owned routers that log it all for, ahem, backup purposes.

Most of all I'm thankful for being alive.

And for creamed corn, which doesn't look like much in a pot, but it is, trust me.

And for William Burroughs, who summed it up best.

Halloween

- November 1, 2014 - - -

Me: What do you want to be for Halloween?

O: A bird?

L: A bird.

C: What kind of bird?

O: uh, um, an owl?

L: An owl.

C: An owl? Okay.

Ten hours of sewing later, C has created two owls:

A couple days before Halloween, Bear Hollow Zoo always puts together a thing called "Boo in the Zoo" for kids. It's mostly older kid stuff, learning about the animals and so on, but the girls love running around the zoo so we went. L is getting new molars, so she mostly chewed her hands, but as luck would have it the animal they had out for the kids when we were there was... an owl.

For Halloween we went over to the Boulevard area where a few of our friends live. We stopped in at a kids party and then walked the neighborhood. L and O quickly discovered that encountering strangers is easier to overcome when they give you candy. Halloween, delivering the life lessons.

Down the street from our friends there's a "ghost" band, the Ghosties, that plays every year. It just wouldn't be Halloween music without a Theremin. Pretty sure there are some well-known Athens musicians under those sheets.

Memorial Park

- November 9, 2014 - - -

The first time I ever heard a loon was canoe camping beside a pond in Baxter State Park, Maine. When you have no idea what that sound is (what that sound is? -L and O), a loon call in the dark is terrifying.

It's a been a long time since then, but I'll never forget that sound. I think about it every time we walk around the pond at Memorial Park.

The pond at Memorial Park looks nothing like this one, which is the one I camped by in Maine, but memory is a funny thing. For whatever reason the little pond at Memorial Park reminds me of that one in Maine. There is no physical resemblance at all. Baxter is a wild place with few people around. The pond at Memorial Park is the opposite. There's even a fountain in the middle. Still, something about it.

L and O have never heard a loon, never been to Baxter State Park. Yet.

They're happy with the swings and the slides and the ducks.

Geese they are not such big fans of, but last week the geese weren't around. Just ducks.

And climbing, you can never climb atop too many rocks.

Muffins

- November 16, 2014 - - -

When you're two years old everything in the world is new every day. Even things you saw yesterday look different, feel different, are, inexplicably, different today.

The world is chaos. The patterns we live our lives by are things we have discovered for ourselves, created for ourselves -- sometimes consciously, sometimes not.

When you're two years old you have far fewer of these self-made patterns in your world. Each one you discover, each one that is imposed on you has far more importance and power than than any one will when you're twenty, forty, sixty, eighty.

Current patterns. Tuesdays we go to Gymnastics. Sunday mornings we hike Sandy Creek Nature Center. Saturdays we eat muffins. Because muffins are awesome (awesome enough that Captain Beefheart has a song about muffins).

O insisted that I take pictures of her and L eating muffins. I snapped a few shots and put the camera away, but she complained. Eventually I was made to understand that for her, take pictures of eating muffins was a literal statement. I had foolishly just taken picture of her with muffins. So...

I also caused great distress when I forgot to photograph my coffee, so I let O do it. Okay, I held the camera, but she pushed the shutter and said cheese. Authorship is always a little fuzzy.

The world is chaos. The patterns we live our lives by are things we have discovered for ourselves, created for ourselves — sometimes consciously, sometimes not.

When you’re two years old you have far fewer of these self-made patterns in your world. Each one you discover, each one that is imposed on you has far more importance and power than than any one will when you’re twenty, forty, sixty, eighty.
