Maple Leaf

Red maple leafs. Another photo of a Canadian fall. When I was a child, we had a big maple tree in our back yard. It was my favorite tree, not only because we could climb it, but also because of its colorful leaves.

I also remeber pressing the leaves in the Sears catalog. Most of the time we would for get about it. Then at some odd time of the year we would find the catalog with a bright flat dried maple leaf.
