A restful spot



Is not this a true autumn day?  Just the still melancholy that I love - that makes life and nature harmonize.  The birds are consulting about their migrations, the trees are putting on the hectic or the pallide hues of decay, and begin to strew the ground, that one's very footsteps may not disturb the repose of earth and air, while they give us a scent that is a perfect anodyne to the restless spirit."
George Eliot
