Hannah, incensed that her sister, Abigail, wore a pair of her favorite earrings without asking, reared her ugly face and wreaked her vengeance. After the short-lived squabble and exchange of words, the family resumed foraging.

It turned out to be a pretty soggy day. I still managed, though, to walk through a couple of the city's largest parks, Riverfront and Wallace Marine Park and collect a few images to post. This fallen leaf was wedged on one of the fenced areas separating the many fields of the Softball Complex. During drier months, you can catch a softball tournament just about every weekend. This time of year the players are replaced by grazing geese, south for the winter.
