Day 6,7,8 and 9 and your patience is still intact. Your sane meter is keeping check on the situation. Looks like it might be a while yet! Not to worry the longer it goes on the more we get to see your stunning captures which is what these are. Very nicely presented Ftboah. Don't worry I will be waiting with you all the way

Jake.

Thanks for looking! I never really paid attention to how long it took before. It's amazing to me the changes it goes through.

I am so glad you decided on this project of watching the Aspen leaves emerge. They are fascinating in their unfolding. I love your collage presentation. Nicely done. Hard to imagine that In the fall they will be gold medallions on your path to the hills.
