Fall is still a couple of weeks away, but the days are shorter, the nights are cooler (and so are the days), the Jerry’s are stockpiling peanuts from us, and the vegetation is looking a bit ragged after a dry summer.
I don’t mind this time of year, in fact I quite like it. The colours are deeper, the smells a little richer, the air has a crispness and a dampness in the mornings, and it feels like things are starting to think about settling in for a season of dormancy.
