I just returned from a trip to upstate NY and Boston, and thought I might have a heart attack from the magnificence of those resplendent trees! You're right to see them as an omen of all the good things to come. What an absolutely beautiful blog!

Even though I live in California and the Santa Ana winds are blowing. I feel that the winds of change are blowing, and blowing hard. Our family looks at the financial crisis as a gift: one massive campaign (painful, though) contribution that will bring about a necessary regime change. What a great, hopeful column. Many thanks!

Finally a positive, hopeful view on the world. I love fall and it thrills me that you've "fallen in love with possibilities" and are lit up like a blazing maple. I'll be looking at the changing leaves differently now - as the old dies off and brings on the new and real "change" is on the horizon. Thank you Christie!

This autumn is particularly brilliant here in Vermont; even long-time Vermonters say so. The landscape seems to be reflecting the nation's political scene. The failed policies that benefitted only one percent of Americans are dropping away like the leaves. And we know it will get worse before it gets better. According to the Farmers' Almanac, winter will again be long and cold. But then, a new birth is coming -- on January 20, 2009! And green will follow...for eight long, prosperous and happy years. I only pray this will be enough time to heal our nation; enough time to change hearts and minds poisoned by the losing party's scorched earth policies as McCain & Palin -- and all they represent -- go down in flames. Christie,
