Fall consists of it being hot, but not August summer hot.
Winter is warm, about 70 every day, and spring is warm to hot.
Summer is just hot, hot, hot.
So I don't get to see the seasons changing in person, I don't get to see the beautiful spring flowers bloom, I don't get to see the first snow, or the blizzards that cover the back porch in person anymore, since leaving Maine 11 years ago.
But my mom sends me pictures all of the time of their yard, and from their fenced in and full of plants and trees back yard, I am now getting to see the beauty of the fall colors.
The greens, yellows, and fire red colored leaves, taking over the whole property. It starts off slowly, and in a few weeks, this whole yard will just be nothing but the beautiful colors of the fall leaves.
Thanks mom for sending these to me.
I can pretend that it's really fall here while my ac cranks out the cool air, because it's still 81 degrees here.






Oh, yes! Fall here is so beautiful. We were up north this past weekend, in Kennebunkport on Saturday, and in Portsmouth, NH on Sunday. The foliage is almost at peak now, next weekend it should be at full peak.
The end of baseball season is made more bearable by our fall leaf-peeping trips!
Autumn is my favorite season up north. I love the colors and the weather was just right. Although Winter in Florida has become my favorite season of the south.
Kat,
Those pictures are fantastic!!! I do love the fall. Ours is not all that great yet. Some trees are starting to turn, then head right into brown and falling. I need a couple of good shots for my hometown video!
Thank you for posting those pictures.
