Fall has once again started to envelope our area, found everywhere in patches of reds, yellows, and oranges as the colors from the once emerald leaves leak out into the crisp air. Fall comes in big gusts of wind and white frosts on the fields. It shows up in the cool evening air and the millions of fallen leaves. Though it brings a chilling sample of the upcoming months fall never ceases to amaze in all its brilliance. People start to come together, and as hearths are lit and coco is brewed jokes are told and memories are shared. Fall is a time for laughter when kids become monsters, houses become haunted, and the sweet taste of a well-earned candy leaps down the throats of countless children. Fall is a time for thanks, when families come together for the greatest feast of the year, reminded of how fortunate they are. Fall is a time for excitements gained from building a huge leaf pile and indulging in its comfort as you repeatedly jump into the crackling fray. It is a time when families get together, joining in the Strenuous carving of pumpkins, giving you all the pumpkin seeds one needs for a evening snack and creating a jack-o-lantern with a glowing complexion. Fall is also the best time of year for photography with the fiery colors of the leaves creating a perfect background to almost any Christmas or thanksgiving family photo. The picture above is a picture I took of a branch from a tree on my street that has turned completely red displaying how stunning nature can be. This phenomenon manages to happen every year and always catches me by surprise, which is why Fall is my favorite season.
