wanted: orange leaf

Description

I have an odd request. I live in New Mexico and I am in search of an orange leaf. 25 years ago this year my son was 8 years old and I kept asking him what he wanted for Christmas. He kept saying it didn't matter, whatever I wanted to get him was fine. Finally, kind of as a joke, he said he wanted an orange leaf. Orange was and still is his favorite color. I informed him, we live in New Mexico. We only have green, yellow and brown. Needless to say, he didn't get his orange leaf and since then it has become a family joke. Every Christmas after he opens his gifts, he says, "Well, it looks like I didn't get my orange leaf again." And we all laugh about it. But this year, being the 25th anniversary, I would love to be able to put an orange leaf in a frame and give it to him. I know he would consider that his best gift, it would be something he would really appreciate. So, if anyone out there would be willing to send me an orange leaf, it would make this a wonderful Christmas. Thank you
