As I sit here in my craft room, I hear the crickets outside my window, and I get the somber thought that fall is arriving, and soon the crickets, frogs, and summer birds will be silenced. And the long wait til Spring and their return will be such a yearning. So I'll spend as much time as I can outdoors, soaking in the sites and sounds of summer, as the days shorten. But Fall brings her beauty, and there will be a new season to take in the aroma's and sites. The turning of the seasons is beautiful in Michigan, I wouldn't trade it for anything.

I used to be a Winter person, but after last Winter and this hot, horribly humid Summer, I'm rapidly becoming a two season person - give me SPRING and FALL!!!
One follows the other, that's for sure. And whether we like it or not doesn't matter, except to ourselves, it's going to happen anyway. Diane
I love the fall, with spring coming in second as far as weather is concerned. But for activities I much prefer summer. It does look like fall is on its way--leaves beginning to fall just a bit, mums ready to bloom, locust noisy at night, and football season beginning.
Well said my friend! Have a good week soaking in the rays.
Fall really is my favorite time of year ~ I just wished it lasted longer!!! I really could handle a short summer if we have a very long fall!

I like your critters better than 1000 plus visitors. I know they are planning another attack....
Laurie! This is such a lovely post that it could be a poem and could be published! Love it! Enjoy your weekend!
Hugs,
