Leaf Piles and Big Smiles

Western Springs is leafy green in the summertime, and leafy orange in the fall--a mild chore for many adults, but pure fun for any kid who loves leaping in a big pile of soft colors. From left to right: Lily Ledonne, Katelyn Lambright and Dylan Ledonne enjoy a small leaf pile at the corner of Grand Avenue and Elm Street as the sun sets on Wednesday evening, repeatedly building it up and bounding into it. Fun!
