The Season of Change

As the long slow summer passes slowly into the coolness of fall you feel a change blowing in on the northern breeze. You can hear the noisy honking of south bound geese as their cries mix with the roaring cheers of a football game. The smell of pumpkin spice this or pumpkin spice that floats upon the breeze along with squeals of young children carving their first jack-o-lantern of the season. It seems that the world round about us has burst forth into a flurry of activity before the cool breezes become bitter cold winds and nature settles down for a long winters sleep.
