Fall Time!

I love the fall time!  Today I was walking outside near work when I had to stop and stare at a row of four trees against a brick building that were a stunningly beautiful red color.  All four of them.  And yesterday, I was walking on the W. & O.D. trail and saw a magnificent tree that was orange and red with some green still left. I love it! I did not have my camera with me either time but even if I did I don't think there is anything that could do the fall colors justice.

Fall time is just so beautiful!  I think of the fall colors as the Lord painting us a colorful masterpiece before the winter comes on. (Although winter is beautiful in its own way too.) Not only is the fall time beautiful but it's cooler outside and it's hard to not be outside during the sunny, cool fall days crunching the falling leaves under my feet or soaking up the cool autumn sun or admiring the colorful trees or smelling the autumn air.

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