Ok, the leaves are falling right this very minute. The rowan trees have turned their bronzy green, rust and gold beneath their red berry ornaments and the maples are ablaze. But summer actually didn’t end until today, October 23. I filled a bowl with homemade granola, spooned on the Mountain High yogurt and sliced the last peach–that would be the last juicy, succulant, fuzzy, sweeter than honey peach!–on top. I ate it reverently, savoring every crunchy, slurpy bite. Summer went out a winner!

Yum. Yum. I even asked the Anasts if they wanted to move into the house you have for them and you last night. They said no.

Our autumn has been so G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S, that I haven’t even missed saying goodbye to summer, but I don’t really want to usher winter in too soon; trying to appreciate each moment. Each season comes bearing its own gifts, doesn’t it?
