The look of fall

So I was driving yesterday and I noticed the sky colors changing. There were rich purple gray clouds hanging heavy in the light blue sky. All this was contrasted by the rich green leaves of the trees below. You can almost feel the leaves turning to the deep reds and golds. We are just on the verge of fall, and the crisp morning air let's me know it is time for me to drag out all of our winter clothes from the attic. It is exciting that change is upon us! Soon I will be sending soups and stews with my husband for lunch instead of his usual turkey sandwich. We will be sitting up with a glass of bold Cabernet, instead of outside on our deck with Chardonnay. My kids will experience the joy of jumping into a pile of crunchy leaves and we will continue the tradition of going apple picking! I welcome the changing seasons, I know I will tire of the bitter Northeast winter, but for now I am loving the beauty and comfort of pending Autumn.
