So much to love about Fall. it is my favorite time of year. I love the hot soups and chili, hot coffee and cocoa, and hot mulled cider. Yumm!
I have to say my very favorite thing though is walking in the woods. It's not just looking at the fall colors in the leaves, but closing my eyes and breathing in the spicy aroma of the leaves. I live in Alabama. I made a visit to Minnisota one fall. To my surprise I found that the woods there smell nothing like the woods here. it's a lighter sweeter smell, where as here it's more spicy and warm.
And call me a fool, but I love those heavy over cast days you only see in the fall and winter when there is a blanket of grey clouds covering the sky and you, warm and cozy inside, lean against the glass door or window and watch as the world grows quiet expecting a cold rain.
Fall makes me feel alive though. I get a spark in my eye and a skip in my step. I have more energy and become friendlier and find myself in very cheerful moods. I stop and chat with strangers at yard sales, craft shows, etc.
