The leaves have been coming down like rain the last couple of days. It’s beautiful to watch. Add to that the 4 strait nights of freezing temps … November has made itself known 😊 Thanksgiving is coming!
Many trees are at peak color and the leaves are raining down when the wind blows…
“November comes
And November goes,
With the last red berries
And the first white snows.
With night coming early,
And dawn coming late,
And ice in the bucket
And frost by the gate.
The fires burn
And the kettles sing,
And earth sinks to rest
Until next spring.”

We spent yesterday on the boat with the dogs enjoying what was maybe the last Hot day of the season… It got up to 89 degrees, the sky was strikingly blue & the river was smooth and so nice 😊 We have had quite a few unseasonably Hot days this Fall! It’s like Summer wasn’t giving up without a fight…
Nature Knows! The Monarch butterflies were moving south in #’s Saturday! They were following the river and were hard to photograph because they were mostly 50’-100’ high… look hard and enlarge to see in this picture.
This last Howrah of Summer has been nice, but it hasn’t felt like Fall yet… That all changes this week. Cooler temps and rain are in the forecast. I am ready to burn a few marshmallows on a fire 🔥 personally 😊
“Listen! The wind is rising, and the air is wild with Leaves,
We have had our summer evenings,
now for October eves!”

Have a Great Sunday! Here’s to Fall 🍁

I got up early and came out to get a good view of the last Sunrise 🌞of Summer. Yes, today is the last official day of Summer 😮 Tomorrow is the Autumnal Equinox, the 1st official day of Fall…
It’s been a HOT summer! Cooler weather sounds great!
I Love Summer! I always mourn its passing… But, it’s been so Hot this year, the cooler weather is a welcome thing. Football, cookouts, fire pits, Fall color, frost on the pumpkin 🎃 Bring It On!
Here’s a link to more info on the 1st day of Fall 👇🏻
“Our fear of death is like our fear that summer will be short, but when we have had our swing of pleasure, our fill of fruit, and our swelter of heat, we say we have had our day.”

Have a great ‘Last day of Summer Sunday’!

We spent the entire day outside yesterday! The day started with a heavy fog, but the sun burned it off soon enough & we went riding in the country to enjoy the seasonal color. This is one of the most beautiful color shows I can remember. Maybe it was the late, warm weather this year, coupled with the plentiful rainfall that brought out the vivid colors? I’m not sure – But, in any case, the Fall Color this year is so beautiful! I hate to see it go… But, the seasons change & so must we. I’m going to enjoy the fall while it’s here & then I’ll set my mind to Winter & the Spring that follows won’t be far behind 😊
Fall color is here today, but gone tomorrow…
Nothing Gold Can Stay
Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
~ Robert Frost
Have a great Sunday.

The leaves are really starting to show now. We rode all over yesterday looking at the trees and enjoying the cool weather.
The Fall Color is looking gorgeous, get out and enjoy the beauty today.
Yesterday was the 300th. day of 2018… Not a huge milestone, but worthy of note. Time flies … Now Fall is in full swing & the color is right at peak – get out and enjoy the day with friends or family 😊
“There is no season when such pleasant and sunny spots may be lighted on, and produce so pleasant an effect on the feelings, as now in October.”

Yesterday was a big day for us, our annual Fall Festival. It’s our last big event of the year & it’s always kinda bitter sweet for me. Saying goodbye to Summer ain’t easy for me… But I have learned over the years to embrace and enjoy each season on its merits. After a long hot Summer, Fall is a welcome thing 😊 It feels so good out now. The leaves are starting to turn & football 🏈 is back in season – Fall is pretty good! I’m going to sit on my swing and sip some coffee ☕️ with my wife & enjoy this wonderful, cool morning.
– Here’s to Fall!
The Fall Color show is just starting.
