Category: Autumn / Fall...

in autumn, listening to the leaves and meditating on the bounty of nature's gifts
collecting kindling on a crisp fall afternoon
delicious autumn, the mellower season
autumn walking, when wildlife is abundant but fewer people are out
color-dazzled woods, birds winging their way south, woodsmoke on the wind
lighting candles, building a fire, eating chili and corn pudding
Oktoberfests
an autumn picnic of lobster rolls, potato salad, apple pie
wandering all the back roads of New England, leaf peeping and visiting roadside stands
sweater weather
hot, special (or spiked) apple cider
maple butter and Indian shuck bread
Spring shall plant and autumn garner until the end of time. (R. Browning)
Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns. (G. Eliot)
The air is as cool as an old coin teaspoon and a faint tang of blue woodsmoke spices the wind. (G. Taber)
Especially, autumn is the quiet completion of spring and summer. Autumn is achievement summarized, the harvested grain, the ripened apple, the grape in the wine press. Autumn is the bright leaf in the woodland, opened husk on the bittersweet berry, the froth of asters at the roadside...know autumn where you find it, when it comes. See it, smell it, taste it. (H. Borland)
