"Standing tall is a very admirable thing. There are very few stories in history of heroes who slouched to the rescue. Likewise, most individuals don't look up to people who are drooped over."

52 Weeks of Blessings- week 39-- fall

This week's blessing is that of the change of seasons from hot hot summer to the cooler mild weather of fall!  Fall is my favorite time of the year! I love the colors and the perfect cool weather.  If I could, I would live where it has fall temps year 'round..... but then I'd miss all the beauty of fall. For your viewing pleasure:
The leaves begin to take on new colors.
I love the reds and oranges on this tree across the street.
And the yellows of these trees near the bridge.The beauty reflected in the river.
The red and yellows of this tree also near the bridge.
The reds and greens of this ground cover.
In the week since these photos were taken, our yard has become a bounty of color!  If you live in an area of the country or world that doesn't get fall and you need a run in the leaves or a dip in a leaf pile, we would be happy to grant your wish (and provide pictures!)

Fall is by far my favorite time of year. The cool, clean, crisp air and the change of colors are my favorite charateristics of fall.

I too love fall.
Not winter.
But fall.
The leaves, the lack of humidity, and the colors of the season.
A great blessing indeed.

♥ I love all the spring colors and new flowers and stuff but there is just something about all the beautiful fall colors that I also love!

I love it too! Most people will say that spring is their favorite season. For me, it is fall. Although spring is nice, I know that it is ushering in very hot weather. Since we don't have terrible winters, there's nothing to dread following fall..just more cooler weather as a break from the terrible heat of our summer!!
Enjoy your beautiful weather!
