Making My Inner Child Happy

Did you ever do this as a child? I did. The last time I jumped in the leaves was in Old Fort, NC. We were visiting some friends and Bob was raking leaves into piles. I hadn’t seen fall in 40 + years and was delighting in all of the smells, cool weather and actually being in it. I so wanted to jump in the pile of leaves but hey I was in my 50s, not a kid anymore. But the temptation grew until I simply couldn’t resist. So off I went and landed in a pile of yellow jackets. No I didn’t get stung but the landing was a bit hard. It was such fun.
