I have mixed emotions when it comes to fall.
On one hand, fall can be so lovely. Sometimes, on a good year, we get our 'second wind' when it comes to the weather. The days begin to grow noticeably shorter, leaves begin to change colour. Our landscape becomes stunning. On these good years, the days are remain warm, evenings enjoyable. [Lots of years however, we get an early snow and a killing frost, we end up missing all the beauty as leaves freeze to the trees, then just fall off. Those years in particular, are hard to take.]
On the other hand, we all know what comes after fall... Winter... Dreaded winter. Blowing snow and frigid temperatures. For that reason alone, fall seems a little bit like a state of mourning. Once the leaves are all gone, winter could happen at anytime. We always hope for no snow come Halloween, but lots of years the kids have gone out in snowsuits as Mother Nature refuses to cooperate.
This year, after a spectacular July, August and September we have been enjoying the nicest fall in a long time.
On lucky years like this, I actually look forward to the cooler temperatures.
Here is a quick layout I created. For the first time in quite a few years, I'm actually looking forward to it getting cooler. Not the snow, mind you, but not much we can do about that.
