Feeling The Changes
The years go by and so much can change and yet there are constants that float upon the tide of time. A crispness in the air which arrives with September twilights. The sound of a local practicing high school marching band heralds the coming Autumn. Here in Texas, the second growing season begins as plants & grasses rise from the heat to grow anew. Lots of people claim to have Spring fever, but I get Autumn fever! It makes me anxious for cooler weather & building fires. I daydream of lazy days on the couch with a bottomless cup of coffee & movie marathons. It makes me yearn for hiking & camping in the wilderness. It is a time to be alive just before the death of nature. Although I wish to hurry it along I will be patient until she unveils her timeless secrets.

I don't feel like such an anomalie! I really hate summer other than gardening. I look forward to the smell of autumnal decay and the nesting that goes on as I get ready for winter.

I hear you. We feel much alike in regards to Autumn.

It is a time to be alive just before the death of nature. That is a powerful phrase... and it makes me think, "What more can I do?"
Autumn gets into my blood and makes me long for the road. I get itchy and antsy, but ready, too for the stasis of winter.
autumn is a nice time of year, its like a having a rest before fighting our way through dark winter months,
