It's Fall!

~ Fall has arrived! ~  

..................

It has come sneaking up on me oh so quickly.  I was just enjoying the start of summer, about a minute ago, wasn't I?  It sure seems like it!  Seriously the time has flown by and it's hard to believe it's Fall already!  I have to say it like a true [converted] southerner..."It's Fall Y'all!"  

The pumpkins are out in force and the fall colors are peeking out of the trees.  The leaves are starting to cover the ground faster than the lawn mower can gobble 'em up.  The cooler evenings at late have been pretty enjoyable, more so while spent out on the covered porch.  A nice glass of wine and a gentle breeze is a fine way to end the day.  The mornings are pretty sweet too spent out there on the porch enjoying morning coffee.  Just enough warmth to make it feel perfect, while the sunshine tops the trees and the morning dew fades away.   

I think I would be satisfied if this weather we are having was the norm year round.  I do mostly prefer and enjoy early Spring to early Fall, and all that is in between.  That's my one long season!  I'm so glad it's a longer stretch of the year than the rest of it too.  Especially here in the South.

It is sad to see Summer pass, I have enjoyed it and I'll be longing from here on out for it's return, no doubt.  So for now, I am falling for Fall.  There is plenty of inspiration everywhere for creating fall crafts or goodies for Fall to decorate with.  Speaking of which, I have some ideas of my own too.  I better get busy 'cause...

It's Fall!!
