Fall Traditions


The fall season ushers in a flurry activities, pumpkin carving, leaf peeping, corn mazes, and the annual squirrel acorn burying contest. Each squirrel vies for the title of "Acorn Master." For the past three years, Bushy has held this title at the Woodpile. Last year he buried so many acorns, he couldn't remember were half of them were! Mom ended with a lawn full of oak trees instead of grass. I thought I would help her out this year.


Bushy is diligently collecting an acorn


When he thinks no one is looking he hides it


He carefully packs down the dirt over the acorn


I was carefully watching his every move …



I "liberated" the acorn from the lawn and ran like hell before I got caught.


Bushy, "I thought I heard something?"
