Welcome Autumn

Don't you just love the holidays? Of course I am gearing up for Christmas but I must not forget how much I like Halloween and Thanksgiving also. Autumn is by far the best season for me with the chill in the air, cozy sweaters and the multitude of colors nature provides via the leaves on the trees. Nice! My parents live in an area where the leaf color explosion is beyond amazing - bright oranges, deep reds and sunshine yellows. The colors provide a shock to the senses not just by sight but the smell also beckons back to a time when I lived in the country and could smell nothing but crisp clean Fall air. Being in a city suburb has it's advantages, but then again so does the country. One is good for your wallet, the other is good for your soul. It's a shame that fall doesn't last as long as winter. I prefer the slight chill to the deep chill!
