It's official. Fall is here. It's a magical time of year when the leaves turn beautiful colors, the pumpkins are ready for carving, and Halloween is just around the corner. The air is cooler and crisp. The days may be getting shorter, but the weather is glorious and everyone enjoys being outside more. I love fall. I think I do my best writing during this season. For me, it's more of a beginning than Spring. As one of my favorite poet's once wrote, "Autumn, the year's last, loviest smile." Those beautiful words were from William Cullen Bryant and are as true today as they were back in the 19th century. That's the wonderful thing about seasons. The world keeps changing...not always for the better, but we can always count on the seasons to be the same. They're predictable; Winter brings snow and cold; Spring brings warmth and a rebirth of life; Summer is hot and lazy, and Fall, well, I think Mother Nature saved her best and most beautiful for September and October. Happy first day of Fall!
