autumn

White Mountains, New Hampshire

Today I'm blogging with friends about our favorite seasons. I love Autumn, particularly in New England where I have spent much of my life. This time of year makes me nostalgic for the deciduous forest as well as the ocean and calls to mind:

long, deep shadows
shimmering trees
an evening campfire with my favorite sweatshirt
cool breezes on a rocky coast
pumpkins, witches, and vampires
diving into leaf piles mainly for the smell of it
hot apple cider
sienna mums and the cornucopia
hayrides

chestnuts
and the slow ease into Winter

    I can only imagine how painfully amazing autumn must be, where thew world is filled with red turning leaves....

  2. Beautiful. Though not quite as grand a show, this makes me miss the Fall colors I recall growing up in northeast Ohio.
