I love fall! - the cool weather, the bare trees, Halloween. Everyone seems to be hunkering down, settling in, making preparations for the winter. It's such a bitter sweet time. Nature is slowly winding down, colours turn from green to grey. But there are also fall fairs and festivals everywhere. Everyone celebrating another bountiful harvest, and enjoying each others company. All the revelry seems to mock the death and decay nipping at nature's heels. So get out there and tell a few ghost stories, ride "The Zipper" at a small country fair, and please take a walk through and empty dying cornfield. Somehow it teaches us our place, and leaves us humble and happy.
