Fall Is In The Air

Last weekend we had our first cool front of the season.

Yes, that's right…fall is here!

After a warm and humid summer, the second week 

of September ushered in some lovely crisp, cool weather. 

And even though I know that a wicked cold winter is coming right on the heels of Fall 

(we won't think about that just yet) I'm going to enjoy every moment of Autumn. 

Oh Fall...how do I love thee? 

Let me count the ways:

Cool, crisp sweater weather, apples, apple cider, apple pie, 

all things PUMPKIN, brilliant fall foliage, 

colorful leaves fluttering gracefully to the ground, 

the crunch of fallen leaves with every step outdoors, 

raking leaves into a huge pile, 

then taking a running jump on top them 

and raking the leaves into piles again,

cozy fires, great camping weather, fall festivals, etc, etc, etc

The first colorful signs of fall 

A White "Woolly Worm" inching it's way down a Jewel Weed Plant 

A babbling brook

Random Turkey Feather

A hikin' we will go

The bridge goes on forever

That's one FLORESCENT caterpillar!

This is Copperhead Rock.
Can you see the resemblance to it's namesake?

A content Chili Dog

Gorgeous Mums at fall market 

Locally grown pumpkins and gourds 

A bumpy 'lil punkin

It's Pumpkin Spice Latte time!

Hints of fall color here and there

Front porch adornments

These trees will be gorgeous in a few weeks

Happy Fall Y'all!


Whether it's feeling like fall where you live or it hasn't quite arrived just yet,
