Friday may have been Fall’s swan song. It was sunny and warm…and since there was no power at work, I got to work from home.
Every year, I drive by a street lined with beautiful red maple trees, and every year I think, I must drive by with my camera some time. And I never do.
But since I was driving by on my way home, and feeling like a kid who just escaped sitting in a boring classroom all day, I seized the moment (along with my dying cell phone).

The unexpected surprise is always sweeter. – Anonymous
After I took my photo of the maple trees, much to my delight, I discovered not only a man-made lake, but one boasting a white swan. 
The true delight is in the finding out rather than in the knowing. Isaac Asimov
Happy Wednesday!
