My Favorite Month of the Year!

Ahhhhh, October. How I love you. Crisp clear mornings that creep through the open window bringing the scent of autumn leaves and fresh cut hay. I adore these mornings when I can see my breath and watch the dew evaporate on the spider web as the morning sun warms the air.

I love the sound the trees make as the wind rustles their brittle leaves. I love listening to the acorns falling to the ground as the squirrels gather their fall harvest. And watching those brilliant yellow leaves emerge from my beech and maple filled backyard - it's a treat that takes my breath away every autumn.

I wait for this month all year - and it only lasts 31 days..........
