I know it's no Louisville,
Lex, but ya still gotta love 'em.
Ain't thousands of tress here
More like ten of 'em.
Leaf colors were stolen
From all over the rainbow.
'Cept for turquoise and pink--
We saw none of those.
Or navy or midnight
Or aquamarine.
Simply red, orange, and yellow
Is all that we seen.
But don't get me wrong.
I ain't a'whinin'.
It ain't the tree's fault;
It's for no lack a' tryin'.
They desperately tried
All them colors to catch.
Blue just took off
Before it was snatched.
Pink was too fast.
Must'a had somewhere to go.
But all them other colors
Were just too darned slow.
But lucky for us.
'Cause, all we'd be seein'
Over and over
Is green after gre-en.
Relish it now
Even if there's no blue.
'Cause red, orange, and yellow
Will soon have better things to do.

In Gangsta (or gangster to the common folk) Rap 101 I learned that when using the words beginning in T one should always adhere to the rule of "drop the T and add a D" which is succeeded by the rule of when there is Th one should not only drop the T and add a D, but they should also remove the H entirely. For example: "We saw none of those" should be changed to "We saw none of dose". Just thought I'd let you in on a little of my expertise :o). Hope you are feeling well HIlary.

What a lovely little ditty. Hope you're well. I'm thinking of you guys!

That is all.
Thank you.
Oh, we love the fall in Moscow, what great memories! The row of trees lining both sides of the walkway I think south of the law school is the best! Maddog said maybe we'd see you after Christmas? For sure Thanksgiving! We are family fasting for Maddie this Sunday if u r able for her surgery on the 5th. We hope you are feeling ok all the way around Hils; this life has a plan, as we are finding out, just not usually the one we plan on. We love you.
