Aside from a bit of rain earlier in the month we’ve been blissfully coasting through autumn around here. Sunny skies. Comfy temps. Everyone saying aren’t we lucky. But today fall became AUTUMN. Like someone flicked the switch.

Woke up this morning and it was DARK. Like, when did that happen? All I wanted to do was snuggle down deeper under the comforter and grab a few more ZZZZZZZZs until the sun came up and it became a proper morning.

But I have a job. So I had to get up. Go to work. Be indoors all day and not realize weather was happening until I got home.

Sure were a lot of leaves on the ground. Like walking through a box of cornflakes. No sneaking up on anyone tonight. Especially since I like to crunch them. Like to kick ’em around and make lots of noise. Because it’s fun. And I can.

The horses’ water looked like pine needle soup.

And Thursday could be snow, depending on who you listen to.

Love this time of year!
