Crunchy leaves, Cocoa, and Cardigans, an open book blog hop post

 


Welcome to Open Book Blog Hop. You can find us every Monday talking about the writing life. I hope you'll check out all the posts: you'll find the links at the bottom of this post.

What do you look forward to as fall comes up?

First and foremost, I look forward to not being hot. I live in North Carolina, one of the southeastern states of the United States. Summer here is humid and hot--often over 100 degrees F. Add to that my own personal summer (I'm over 50), and you understand why I only go outside very early in the morning during summer. Spring can get nearly as hot, so I'm not a big fan of Spring either.

So, yes, once the weather dips below 70 or so and stays there? I'm happy as a clam. The ideal weather, so far as I'm concerned, requires a sweater, but not a coat and builds your appreciation for cute hats and hot drinks. 

The trees celebrate by turning their leaves vibrant colors before they let go and rest for the winter and my eyes are wide with delight every day. 

 How about you? Are you a fall fan? What do you like (or not like) about it? I'd love to hear from you in the comments!

  1. I enjoy all the seasons, though winter is too long here. Yes, I like the cooler weather in fall, too.
