Not sure why trees might be dropping leaves in the Spring, but this large one caught my eye.

True
This compass belonged to my FIL. It's one of the items recently unpacked from moving boxes. It was either from an airplane or a boat. Leo worked for Grumman Aircraft and he also had built his own boat, so... I'm sure my husband knew of its origins and he probably told me at one time. But, today, the story is lost on me.
It is stored in a very nice wooden box.
Update: My son says it's a nautical compass, so it must have been in Leo's boat.

Can we ignore 2025
I don't hold high expectations for the new year. Me. The ultimate optimist. Grief doesn't magically disappear at midnight on December 31.
And then. And then, the most despicable piece of crap on the planet will set out to destroy everything. Sigh.
On a lighter note, the unpacking continues. I have found my solitary blue ribbon, won for my loom painting. And I found some of my son's 'artwork' from pre-school. Yes, 50 some years ago. I chose a few to commemorate with photos:
Next, I have numerous studio umbrellas/stands. Not sure what to do with them as I doubt most Goodwill shoppers would have use for them.
