[carnation]

I just love fall! It's cool here today and the leaves are turning red and I love it! I love pumpkins and Halloween and high school football games and taking my baby for walks outside and planning for Thanksgiving and Christmas..

How about you? What do you like????!!!

I love cold mornings, when you can stay in bed, warm under the covers, and HOPEFULLY snuggling with a cute boy. And I love football season, and all of the holidays, because it means I get to see my family more! I LOVE Fall!

Well since i live in Houston, it doesnt start getting cold until about Thanksgiving, if we're lucky- but i do look foward to it not being AS hot. I like when people start putting pumpkins out on the yard and decorating for halloween. I think that once halloween comes, the fun begins because then its thanksgiving, christmas, and new years!! Cool fall walks are really nice too!

I like when the weather starts getting cooler (or in Pullman's case... some wind chill mixed with falling leaves) and you can sit in bed with hot chocolate and a book and snuggle in big, warm, cuddly blankets.

Wow, what don't I love about fall? It is my favorite time of year!

I love that the weather is cool and crisp and beautiful, and that I have survived summer's horrible heat and humidity for another year.

I love football games, pumpkins, apples, having hair that looks decent (no more humidity!), the beautiful leaves, driving with the windows open and SWEATERS!!!

I love going for walks in the cool evening, wearing a sweatshirt and smelling a fire burning somewhere and seeing the glowing warm lights from the houses and feeling the crunch of leaves underfoot, and then getting home and having a cup of hot apple spice tea.

I love back-to-school shopping for clothes; even though I don't go back-to-school any more, I still do the clothes shopping!

There is just something in the air every fall that feels crisp and hopeful. I love it.

Fall is God's present to us for having been good all through the past two seasons. What can one not absolutely adore about fall? It truly is the perfect season. Leaves changing, the scent of burning leaves in many places, brisk mornings, camping, fireplaces blazing, (soccer in full swing ), thick sweaters, candy corn, snap wool or fleece blankets, wool socks, scarfs. Fall is the season of romance, and their always seems to be a generally more pleasant aire to people during the fall, a happiness that isn't always there. In Kentucky, one feels the effect of every season very strongly. My memories from the fall in my youth are ever-present, making fortreses out of fallen leaves, building treehouses while vacant of leaves so that when they came back, the house was done and was then perfect, doing school projects pasting colored leaves to cardboard, looking out of the windows of my little private grade school at the huge tree near-by changing like a chameleon with the trees in its background. Fall practically forces me to sit under trees on campus and read, to go on pics-nics, long, long bike rides. My life is honestly 100% different in the Fall than it is at any other time, it's 200% better. The Fall Season is a miracle, and whom cannot do anything but love a miracle?

EX card, as a fellow Kentuckian I would just like to say that is the gayest thing I have ever read in my life.

Fall= Football, Hunting, Bourbon. Everything else is just details till its time to start fishing and playing golf again.

[SigmaChiCard]

okay buddy, you're cool.

You had to edit that three times to get something good together. I will leave the U of L jokes out of it, I'm sure you hear enough of em already, since anyone that lives south of Louisville is a redneck (not red-neck) with obviously inferior intelligence.

No disrespect meant. Never seen anyone reach inside their soul for a storybook description of fall, if they werent actually writing a book, or at least the inside cover to one anyway. Obviously your very in touch with your feelings towards fall. Dont get too defensive, just go with it.

I love fall - I love sitting around, looking at the changing colors and seeing the sky swept with beautiful images of nature's cyclical life turning yet another bend. I am enamoured with the absolute glory of God and his ways, and feel that the cool in the air brings my body and soul a new level of efficiency. Is there truly anything more glorious than sitting on a breeze-swept hill, basking in the last warmth of summer and viewing the natural images that inspired the likes of Thoreau and others?

Oh yeah, and I'm drunk. That's the best part.

[KABillyMac]

Ah yes. This post, the briskness of the fall air nipping at my little nose, and the lighthearted thoughts of leaves gracefully falling from the trees like little angels coming to rest on the ground has caused me to want to stoke up the fire and get plowed on corn whiskey. Lovely. Just lovely.

Fall is definitely the best time of year: walking to and from work in the freezing rain, waking up in the morning to the frost on my windows and coming home at night to brisks winds which plummet the temperaturs way below zero. Fall is the season of anticipation: waiting for winter and waiting for exams. It's the season of road work, the season of rodent overpopulation, and raccons chewing up ppl's garbage.....
wait, what was this about again...?

[greeklawgirl]

Ahhh, the joys of sitting in front of a crackling fire, toasting marshmallows and sipping hot chocolate, wearing my flannel jammies...wrapped in a down comforter and the arms of my husband. It just doesn't get any better than that!

I love fall! (Even if the leaves don't change colors in Southern California!)
