Turning
September 22nd, 2010
I don’t need the calendar to tell me that fall has arrived. For one thing, the enormous garden spiders are back, guarding our house and reveling in the rain that’s come early this year.
For another, when the sun finally came out, and the skies cleared, the air was suddenly crisper, thinner, fragile in its warmth.
And the trees—
the trees.
I blinked, and it was autumn.
Good thing I was paying attention. I don’t want to miss it.
Happy fall, everyone!

Things I’m looking forward to this fall: harvest festivals, pumpkin pie, and lighting our wood-burning fireplace. Can’t wait!
autumn is so beautiful and romantic, and it really has to romance us in minnesota… to butter us up for the dark and cold that follows forever and ever until we just can’t take it anymore and then, finally, spring rescues us from our misery.
take care of charlotte!
I thought fall came on fast and furious this year. My parents are coming in October and I’m really really hoping they don’t miss the color. It’s not quite to peak yet, but it’s getting awfully close! :)
I’m really hoping that we get a nice long drawn out fall this year. Payback for that ridiculous excuse for summer, don’t you think?
The leaves are at their peak in Minneapolis right now and so beautiful. The way they glow in the light with orange and yellow is inspirational every day.
