Every year at this time I get a bit verklempt at the signs of fall. Don’t get me wrong – I love the cooler weather and the change of seasons but frankly I am never quite ready for it. As Chris and I took a nice long hike on Sunday I saw many signs that I had better get on board with fall because it is coming. And coming fast.

The paths were strewn with fallen leaves, as is our driveway, and I am just not quite in the fall mode yet. I will get there but I feel like the summer flew by and what do I have to show for it? I just want it to last a little bit longer, I guess.

How about you? Are you ready for fall and all things pumpkin spice? Let me know in the comments and remember to Comment for a Cause for our September cause – Allied Whale Adopt a Whale.
