Autumn
As much as I enjoy tank tops, flip flops, driving with the sunroof open and feeling the sunshine on my skin, the call of Autumn lures me in to its embrace and I smile.
It's Mother Nature way of telling me, "time to downshift Sherry and take it a little slower"
After doing some yoga this morning, I decided to sit outside with my coffee and enjoy the sounds and sites of fall. I heard the honk of geese flying over, the chirping of crickets, the rustle of the breeze in the trees and felt the chill in the air - hoodie weather is here, or close at least.
I treasure mornings like this.
I love summer but I absolutely adore fall. It brings memories of dad chopping corn, burning ditches (I LOVE that smell), fall food (pumpkin pie, pigs in a blanket, scalloped potatoes, chili), dad butchering hogs or beef, mom butchering chickens, popcorn and hot chocolate.
Life seems simpler in the fall. I don't know why, it just does.
So while I'm enjoying the remnants of summer, I'm digging out the hoodies and looking forward to the cooler weather, the honking geese, the smoke from burning ditches and fall food, and a slightly slower paced life.
