Thirteen Reasons I Love Autumn

1. Going for walks in the woods.
2. The cool temperatures after a long hot summer.
3. The bright colors of the leaves. Orange, red, gold and burnt sienna.
4. The smell of wood fires as people start using their fireplaces again.
5. Apples. Fresh and crisp.
6. Cider. Cold or hot, it doesn’t make a difference.
7. Blue skies. It seems they are brighter and deeper blue in the fall.
8. Quiet. Tourist season ends here in central New Hampshire and our town becomes ours again as the tourists all go home.
9. Apple cheeks. I love seeing the kids around here after they have been playing outside in the crisp air. They have bight red apple cheeks and big smiles.
10. Halloween, my birthday and then Thanksgiving. Can you say good food?
11. Turtlenecks, sweaters and knee socks.
12. Fires in our hearth.
13. Soups, pot roasts, and crock pot meals that I avoid making during the summer, because it’s just too darn hot!

  3. Boy, I just love the way you’ve captured no. 9 so perfectly…and you are indeed the lucky one to treasure so much in autumn, for so long….

  4. I should probably finish my thought in my last comment!
    You are indeed the lucky one to treasure so much in autumn, to recognize it fully from the first day on. (Ugh! It’s bothered me all night how I worded that originally!)
