31 Days of Savoring: Jumping in the Leaves

Who doesn't remember jumping in the leaves as a kids?  Begging your parents to rake up a huge pile and  running full speed, tossing colors into the air.  The wind rushing by you and the carefree joy of childhood.

Embrace the season.

Go Jump In The Leaves!
