The sound of crunching leaves
The nostalgic scent of wood smoke
The heady aroma of frost-kissed apples
Thumping pumpkins ripening in fields
The wild animal sounds calling through the forests
Scarecrows guarding the last of the harvest
Colors, colors, colors... yellow, gold, orange, rust, tan, red ... painting the landscape!
"My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns."
George Eliot
"Bittersweet October. The mellow, messy, leaf-kicking, perfect pause between the opposing miseries of summer and winter."
Carol Bishop Hipps
"Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all".
Stanley Horowitz
