Love about autumn
 

End of another year is coming soon and the promise of a lot of new things we can look forward to in the new year.

Pumpkins, Delicata squash, gords, dinner-plate Dahlia arrangements, pinecones to use in the fireplace....

We are looking forward to decorating our home this year. :balloon:

Hello October

a perfect autumn treat

Everything about it - especially when it arrives!!

However, My two favorite things about it are the cooler temps and the inevitable changing of the leaves- especially here where I live - they are a sight to see!

Love about Autumn
 

The air seems cleaner. The hot sticky summer is taking a break. Soon be time to turn on the fireplace and relax with feet up and a hot cup of coffee.

The words cozy and snuggle are used a lot more. I also like getting out My Fall/Winter clothing too.

I am also looking forward to decorating the back patio with a Fall/Halloweenish feel - and having a fire burning in the metal firepit.

I love the trees in my neighborhood and they will be "showing out" in the upcoming weeks. Summer is my favorite season, but fall (and winter) in Michigan is something to behold.

The beauty of the changing leaves takes your breath away. Here's a shot of a nearby country road in western michigan.

And I saw my first woodpecker of the season. They're out and about year round, but I only saw my first one of the year yesterday. It was a woodpecker with a red head. Very cool.

i can't ever get enough pumpkin
