fall is here

I love fall.

Hot enough for shorts and a T-shirt during the day, then cold enough for jeans and a long sleeve shirt at night. The raspberries are still going strong and yesterday i munched about 100 of them. Today i watered them so that friday i can munch some more!!! Also the grapes are still making grapes...which is cool.

Fall makes me happy inside.

Reasons why fall is so great:
Making apple cider
Harvesting honey
eating raspberries
The trees turning colors
high squirrel activity (lol)
Low humidity
Everyone is back at Union
Swing dancing season (ya it goes all year....but for some reason fall just feels better)
You can sit in the sun without getting too hot
Everything smells better in the fall

I'm happy about fall. But there's a little tiny piece of me thats sad because winter follows fall. I dread the short days and long nights of winter. To wake up in the dark, go to school only to see the light through a window, then return again in the dark.....that just sucks. I need sunshine. I crave it! I can't live here for the rest of my life. Colorado (mountain sunshine) or California are my top two future living destinations.

I love fall
