Fall

Autumn is now firmly established, the trees still for the moment interestingly adorned with colourful foliage, but perhaps not too far away from becoming grimly stark as winter's icy hand approaches. Or something along those lines. As if autumn wasn't enough, I am soon off to experience fall in New England, or at least I hope it will still be fall by the time I get there. But I'm not sure how many trees they have in downtown Boston: lush forests may get in the way. And the leaves would need a lot of sweeping up.

To get myself in the right frame of mind, I went to see The Crucible at the Royal Exchange the other night. It was very impressive, dark and emotional, uncomfortable (and not only because of the seating), and perhaps after all not the best preparation. But hopefully things have moved on by now.
