hi Stan, thanks for the nice comment Bruddah. The tree behind me is actually a Japanese Maple...always looks really pretty this time of year. Alas, the leaves don't stay on for long once they change into that beautiful colour...as the Winter creeps in.
 
Great job on another great old standard. I always enjoy the background views around your farm. Thanks.
