Golden

I'm sitting here at my computer.....surfing away and I look up

Outside my window is the most perfect tree....it is golden, it is shimmering, it is fall

I'm always amazed how autumn sneaks up on me.

I'm buzzing along, in my own world, run the kids here, run the kids there, fix dinner, work, laundry...blah...blah...blah

And then....

The air is cool in the morning

There's still a hint of coolness on the breeze when I pick up the kids from school

And the sky

it's deeper, bluer.....technicolor really

Autumn is here

I think I'll take a breath, stop and offer a toast

to my favorite season of the year

Autumn......it's golden

That was lovely. Honestly it was. I'll toast with you, except that here in the desert, we don't exactly "do" autumn. Fall either. We do Summer. And then we do "A little cooler than summer but not cool enough to be fall".

Here's my concern.(Did I mention that was lovely?) Where's Part TWO??? you gave us the Scout Adventures part one, but my dear lovely Lisa, WHERE DID YOU PUT PART TWO????

tease. big teaser.

I've been dying for a string of days like that. Aren't they glorious? We get one nice day and then 5 of rain. Now with all the wind today, the trees still standing will be bare! I'm so dreading winter.
