"Autumn-covered hills" are bare now. Silver branches reach into the grey sky. The sunset is closer than it was. The sunrise is bare. The stars have a cold glitter.

Trying to decide between Anglo-Saxon tunics or the Bocksten-man style (fuller skirt.) Somehow less elvish & hobbitish this year, more rohirric. Elvish spot is filled by sons.

edit: Cool, Ninja. The brooks around here are all that color. I think it's a natural name. But justly made popular by The Prof.

There is a Brandywine Restaurant in my town. It's been there, named so, since the mid 1970s, and maybe before then. I'm pretty sure I know where the owners got the name. It's a great homey little place; it used to be more so until they updated.

Ah, dear friends...until very recently, Brandywine was the name of my apartment complex. Beat that. My address was Brandywine Place.

Now it's boring. And oxymoronic.
