As The Leaves Turn...

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE THINGS ABOUT FALL? WHAT DOES IT BRING TO MIND FOR YOU?

Relief from excessive heat. The lovely smells of burning leaves. The crisp air, and the way the sky looks. The gentle melancholy of dying summer.

That is beautifully phrased!

I always love the first sniff of smoke from a chimney of a fireplace. Also of the leaves burning. I love the energy shift you can feel as one season turns to another!

Pumpkins being displayed as decor...notice I do not call them food. lol Indian corn.

I love the change in the light - the heathering of the sky.

Does anyone do any fall chores like chop fireplace wood or clean gutters?

 

[garnetsilver]

We'll probably be checking our gutters. No wood chopping, though.

Autumn brings the end of snake season and milder weather here.

Does putting on flannel sheets count?
