I was walking along yesterday and got whapped in the nose by a falling autumn leaf.
That happened to me last Sunday, when the winds started to pick up. It was a dried up, brown oak leaf, and it hit my cheek sideways. It felt like a razor!

Those oaks do have a pointy end...an are thick. I guess better than a big ole pine cone hitting you.

This one didn't hurt. It just got my attention. My reflexes made me close my eyes so didn't get a good look at the culprit. A gust of wind had kicked up and a bunch of leaves were falling at the time.

Or the whole tree, given where I live and the state of things around here right now. So many trees down, great, big, majestic trees that had to have been old.

If you survived Sandy I hope all is well... and your warm and have something too eat...
Over the weekend, we had to travel to a place about 40 miles away. We saw 8 deer by the side of the road, which had been hit by cars. Wow
Probably the drought has forced many deer to forage for what pre-winter food they can find. If there's not enough in the woods they live in they often migrate to find more to eat. That means crossing roads.

I hate when that happens. Old trees are irreplaceable. Of course, the humans who live near them are most important.

I woulda thought some folks would get a kick out of the vid.
