| As
I am sitting on the
deck drinking my
coffee, I notice the
air is cooler this
morning; shivering,
I draw a sweater
around my
shoulders.
Fall is in the air
for sure. The
kids are back to
school and the last
of the garden crops
are canned and put
away in the basement
for this
winter. God
surely blessed us
again this year with
vegetables and
fruits. The
garden is ready to
be cut and plowed
and sowed in winter
grass. The
yard is getting its
last haircut and
trim, and all the
flower pots have
been cleaned out and
fall mums put in
their places.
The scarecrow and
hay bales are going
up to decorate for
Fall. Soon
there will be frost
on the
pumpkin.
Thanksgiving will be
here before I know
it. Yes, the
air seems cooler
this morning.
The trees are
turning yellow and
leaves are beginning
to fall. I
need to get the deck
furniture cleaned
and put away for the
winter, and the pool
cleaned and
winterized. We
sure had a wonderful
summer! Now it
is time to start
enjoying soup made
from the vegetables
we have canned and
watch movies we
haven't watched in a
while. I can
taste the hot
chocolate by the
fire while staying
warm indoors.
I am thankful for
the many blessings
from the Lord, and
for the memories I
will have of this
wonderful Summer
season. Yes,
Autumn is in the
air. |
