Everything is damp.... soaked and dripping.
This does NOT please Riley, who dislikes 'soppy paws'! hehe
Katie doesn't CARE.....she'd slog through a SWAMP!
This tree....a Ginkgo Biloba... is a LIVING FOSSIL...
planted in Sister's yard, by Dad.
I'd imagine there are few, if ANY, other Ginkgo trees in N.O.!
Dad planted a pair of ginkgo trees in his yard YEARS AND YEARS ago...
slowest growing trees in the WORLD....
but every fall, the most EXQUISITELY brilliant yellow leaves you'll EVER see!
My LEAF Collection, in high school Science class,
turned Dad's two Ginkgo trees into the HOTTEST trees in town!
All my friends wanted a Ginkgo leaf for THEIR leaf collections...
So I went to school with Ginkgo leaves...
Leaves no one had ever SEEN before! hehe

Photo taken at 10:00 A.M. this morning in Connie's
front yard,
as she arrived home from work!
New Orleans has no equipment to DEAL
with snow,
as this is TOTALLY out of character for N.O.!!!!!!!
