Fall leaves

The colors of fall are some of my favorites. It's my favortie time of year also - when the heat of summer is gone, soup is a great menu item and you need to decide if you should wear a sweater or not. Love it.

A longtime friend of mine, Cindi Kanagy Reeser, posted these pictures on her FB page and graciously granted permission to share them here. Thanks Cindi.






"In the garden, Autumn is, indeed the crowning glory of the year, bringing us the fruition of months of thought and care and toil. And at no season, safe perhaps in Daffodil time, do we get such superb colour effects as from August to November." - Rose G. Kingsley, The Autumn Garden, 1905







"Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all." - Stanley Horowitz





"The leaves fall, the wind blows, and the farm country slowly changes from the summer cottons into its winter wools." - Henry Beston, Northern Farm



"Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower." - Albert Camus
