This is Fall…

We’ve had a rough couple of weeks. The relentless rain ruined our weekend days for outdoor play anyway. Indoors we found some solitude in cooking and baking and crafting, but we like to hold off on that for our winter months.

Today we’re enjoying our third dry day in a row. I’m able to sit outside with a fire and my coffee while soaking up some beautiful sun.

The air is cool, but the rays are warm and tickle my face. This is the magic of fall. The colors are so vivid and the air has a sweet pungent smell.

I relax to the sound of a calming crackle coming from the fire. Honking geese fly over no doubt kicked up from a hungry hunter. A distant crack from a rifle or shotgun doesn’t startle me, but makes me smile. A youth hunter may have just bagged his first buck or someone might be having fresh duck for supper.

I am enjoying this day! I hope you are too!
