Name Three Things
Sep. 4th, 2008 at 8:07 PM
Dori Chaconas
Name three things you like about fall.
Mine would be:
The crunch of leaves underfoot.
Cooler days.
The smell of woodsmoke in the air.
What are yours?
Mood:
cheerful

We have no canyons here, but the hills are lovely with the fall colors!

Apple picking, and eating the fresh apples
The 'smell' of autumn...burning leaves, the air on a crisp morning, etc.
And in Florida, the reduction of humidity and slightly cooler weather.
I DO miss New England in the fall...

Ummmmmm.... Can anything smell as good as a fresh apple? I heard that that's even good for migraines. Interesting.

I think the cool weather has to be the best. It's such a relief after a hot summer. It feels so good to put a sweater on!
