My street has some nice Maple trees, but these are from the Internets.Every year at this time we have people complaining about it getting colder and windier. WHINERS!
This is a great time of year-no need for air conditioning, and yet the furnace isn't kicking in too often.
The air has a crispness, a freshness, that is wonderful to breathe in and out.
I don't need to cut my grass again this year, and am (hopefully) a ways away from pressing the button on my snowblower (electric start-buy it and love it).
I know, I know-I'm too happy for Autumn. I should grumble and complain like most of the world. But it's beautiful. Praise God for every day that you are alive in His Creation.

I don't know about where you live, but around this burb the gas prices have fallen a little bit. I'll take any morsel of good news.
{sigh} politics is still on going-tomorrow night I will be gloriously
working during the Veep debate. I'll catch the news later, but I can tell you now how it will shake out-Biden will do better than expected, and Ryan will do just fine. No big caster-taffys; both sides will be playing it safe.
It's basically a useless event-no one will ever change their vote because of what Veep candidates say in a debate.
My dad remarks slightly testily every year that if you choose to live in New England you have no right to complain about normal seasonal weather, whose arrival is entirely predictable. I fear I do anyway sometimes, but I won't debate autumn's beauty with you; in fact I will point you at a few of my own attempts at capturing it.
I just watched the whole VP debate, having tuned out during the live broadcast. I would say you're an excellent prognosticator, at least in this case.
When I was living in Vegas I remember another expat from Winter remarking, "You don't shovel Sunshine!"
Which is true; weather is one of the best things that Las Vegas has to offer. That and excellent food-Palace Station had an Italian restaurant that was exceptional.
Rio had a HUGE 'global' buffet-different foods from all over the world-I lived closer to the Rio, so
I went there more often.
