Autumn

The landscape is acquiring its late autumn cloak as the rain and wind have dropped many leaves,although a few trees and entire hillsides still show the rusty, golden bronze of the season. Fleabane and clover are some of the few blossoms remaining, but the cooler air will likely kill any insects that could utilize the nectar within them. I had to wear a heavier jacket while walking today-the first time since spring. The coming of winter is welcomed by Beth, although I am not so enamored of the season, so we compromise by waiting until January to head south. The first snowfall in Warren is usually in the beginning of December.
