Thank you so much for your encouraging words @generikat!

Oh I haven't even thought about how I would celebrate. Hmm. Perhaps, by learning how to make a pumpkin pie! It seems fitting since it is October challenge :)

Yes! It is indeed the larch tree! We have a bunch of them here in the village and they are one of my favorite trees. I love, love how they turn golden in autumn despite them having the needles. They look so majestic!
