Things you love about autumn?
 

My favorite time of year. I love the crisp air and the changing maples. What do you enjoy about it?

Colors
 

I love seeing the trees turn colors in the fall. There's nothing like seeing a tree go from green to orange or rust.

Great thread idea....^5!
 

Great thread. Thank you!

The beginning of Spring, smelling the trees and plants getting ready to come to life in aromatic greens, yellows and reds. Hmmm, analogous of Fall, isn't it?

EXCEPT, in Fall, we are all slowing down, taking a deep collective breath and ready for introspection, ready for rest.

Autumn is by far my favorite season.

I love the contrast of the vibrant yellows, oranges, and reds of the leaves against a bright blue sky. I love the way the crisp, cool air is invigorating. Sweaters and hoodies. The smell of burning leaves. Cuddling up with someone special to keep warm. Halloween. Pumpkin flavored goodies. Football. Taking walks through the crunchy leaves.

Now, if we could finally get some of those cooler temps down here. :)

busy busy busy squirrels....they know what's coming

I love the cooler temps....oh wait, it will be 95* today and 102* by Saturday.

Oh, and it's the BEGINNING of fire season, after fires all summer. :fireman::firetruck: Yeah, I love the fall.

Pumpkin donuts.
Watching the colors change.
The smell of bonfires in the air.
Thanksgiving turkey and pumpkin pie.
Freshly fried apple fritters with vanilla ice cream.
The crunch of leaves underfoot as you hike through the forest.

I love almost everything on your list, especially the donuts!!:hk11:

I enjoy wearing hoodies & walking in the woods , fires by the water...

Football
Getting back on a routine after the summer
Looking forwards to the holidays
Cooler weather
Changing leaves
Fairs
Making my chili when it's cool enough
Apples

Hearing the wildlife outside of our apartment building. I sometimes sit out on the patio and watch squirrels carrying things around like construction men do. It was amazing watching the leaves turn and drop. Seeing season changing is still new for me, in Alabama it was winter or summer. Never really a long between period like here.

I love everything about Fall! I love everything everyone else has mentioned so far PLUS!
Fall has the best camping weather
VFD and local churches and schools BBQ fund raisers
Fall festivals
Car shows
raking leaves and other yard work
Winterizing all of the gasoline powered equipment
knowing I won't have to mow for months

yes I could go on and on

Here on the central west coast of Florida, Fall is anything but flamboyant! Just the same, there are subtle hints if you look hard enough.

There is more of a sea breeze, especially at night, so it is a couple of degrees cooler.

Apples, pears and citrus are coming into season here, so the prices will drop and the fruits will be much more abundant soon. FL Avocados too! :)

Daytime temps start to slowly drop too. I look forward to 70's temps instead of high 80's.

Watching the squirrels, who are busy with their cheeks packed full and still trying to fit another piece in.

The grass slows it's growth so it only needs cutting biweekly! YAY!

Being able to actually open a few windows in the late evening for a few hours.

Soon it will be cool enough to grow some herbs and a few veggies.

Best of all, it will soon be cool enough to camp comfortably without ac! :byebye:

I would love autumn if we actually had one in the greater LA area.

Upper 80's again today.

Another heat wave.
