Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for October 11, 2023

Darn Leaf Peepers.

“…and then to see the regime change.”

Authun?

And to set fire to your castle also before they leaves.

You don’t have leaves in your own village?

Rodney looks terrified.

The Leafs never change. It’s the same thing year after year, High Hopes before the season starts, dashed hopes by the time the season ends.

Hockey’s back!

That’s what you guys get for having such great scenery!

This must be what it feels like in Vermont sometimes.

The leaves are always leafier on the other side!!!!!

Ah. Tourists. Sell concessions (cider, etc) and make a buck.

Living in a National forest, I know just how he feels. I don’t like Tourist coming on my road to look at the beautiful trees. Hunting season is the same, you get all these city slickers with guns who will shoot at anything that moves, and I have dogs. I’ve had to run people off my land with gun in hand to deter them.

I didn’t know Id had many trees around. Especially around the castle. Must be a fast growing variety.

Huh. Viking leaf peepers. Who’da thunk it.

You gotta have real patience to see a leaf change colors. It takes at least 48 hours to turn from green to red or golden! I’ve never seen it actually happen. One day it’s green and one day they are not green.

That may explain their long beards. When they began watching the leaves – they were clean shaven!

Peeping huns.

We are the Huns from Florida. We don’t have seasons.

Birnam Wood.

It’s the battle implements that threw everyone off.

And here, they thought you were on the HUN-t!

Sounds like when Hitler’s troops invaded Poland a few days before they were supposed to. They said it was an exercise and left. Then a few days later they invaded Poland and took it.

Tourists…

You think they’ll fall for that?!

Should ask them if they would like to have some apple cider.

Great art today!

HEY, . . . there are leaves, and then there are LEAVES

Some people do tour areas looking at the changing leaves.
