Fall leaf apocalypse

Iwas enjoying a welldeserved nap when I began to shrug off the post-nap grogginess and open my eyes.

I looked out on the deck and the lawn and was shocked and horrified by the sight of the destruction, mayhem, and debris that is fondly referred to as fall.

It is obvious why the season is called “fall.” Everywhere I looked, things had fallen. The debris included an extinctionlevel quantity of leaves, pine needles and branches of every size due to an early snow and sleet that hung on the leaves.
