Autumn Open Trackback Weekend
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.
Ecclesiastes 3:1
Poised at a moment of transition, the Fall is upon us.
Autumn seems to bring a host of changes. The trees begin to change colors, bringing a beautiful array of different colored foliage into our midst.
What ephemeral beauty.
Time to dig out the toasty, warm sweaters and collect the wood to start the cozy fire in the fireplace.
There is something comforting about the predictable, cyclical changing of the year…is there not?
If only we could capture the beauty of autumn and hold it to our hearts all year long eh?
Ah, Leaves fall, rivers fall, and alas even we fall.
But, do we choose to be lifted up yet again?
What say you dear friends?

Democrats are rushing to defend President Bush against Hugo Chavez’s attack. They want everyone to know that it is wrong to personally attack the President even if you disagree with his policies. Stop laughing, damn it! I’m serious. Do you……

Beautful scenes, but utterly useless in Muslim culture. After 1300 years of picking off sand fleas, you will not find Muslim birdwatchers, naturists, botanists, or mountainclimbers.
When was the last time you heard of a Muslim family going out camping? Hunting maybe, but the prey is usually Christian maidens they can rape.
Sad, really. The Western World has such a vibrant , rich culture to share, yet Muslims want to force us to take up the life of tent-dwellers.

Usually I’d agree with you about longing for fall, but not so this year. I wish summer would go on and on because we don’t have a heater on the pool yet!
September 22nd, 2006 at 12:25 pm
Cube, what’s fall in Florida like? *) degrees? LOL! Just kiddin’!
Autumn is my favorite season! Not too hot, not too cold, beautiful trees and all the animals getting ready for the winter… Hot apple cider and pumpkins….
Ahhhhh… *Smiles*

Can Michael Steele Win in Blue State Central?…
Could this, in fact, be a long-overdue racial backlash against the party that gave us southern segregation, poll taxes, and Sen. Robert KKK Byrd? Probably not, as the Democrat lie machine churns away on Steele - but you never know.

Beautiful scenes. Having been born and raised in southern New England, I saw many gorgious Falls. It truly is a picturesque time of the year. Yet that awesome beauty is followed by a cold gray and chilling temperatures. I proudly make my home in the deep south now, and although I do miss God’s painting of the scenery, I do not miss the ‘dead’ of winter. More moderate temperatures suit me just fine, thank you.
September 22nd, 2006 at 3:21 pm
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven…So the Byrds plagiarized their lyrics?
Just kidding…
Although Fall is a beautiful season, I’d much rather it be Spring.

Have you ever heard of the Chelsea Milling Company? Think hard! No? What if I tell you that the company is located in Chelsea, Michigan, and has been there for over a hundred years? Any idea? What about a “Little Blue Box”? Anything yet?…

Autumn is my favorite season. It’s the time of the year that is analogous to evening. We prepare for bed, putting things away, preparing for the next day’s activities. The weather in Autumn is getting ready for Winter - the season of night - when the world around us sleeps, and dreams of the coming year.
I like the photos, Angel!
September 22nd, 2006 at 7:21 pm
Mine too benn. That’s the single thing I miss about living up north. We only get summer and winter down here. Leaves green, then leaves brown.
September 22nd, 2006 at 8:21 pm
Fall is great in the Ozarks! Stay tuned–I SHOULD have my new camera USB by the time it gets real colorful around here.
September 22nd, 2006 at 8:47 pm
gorgeous…
thank you…
September 22nd, 2006 at 8:51 pm
The seasons are a gift of God . . . and yet, we hardly take notice. Can you imagine how dull Spring would be were it not for the cold winter? Thank you for those breath-taking photographs; they remind me to count my blessings.

That is one thing I’ll say for Canada. When the seasons change, it is really beautiful. That is all the good I have to say about it however.
September 22nd, 2006 at 11:04 pm
I agree about Canada, and their sunsets are gorgeous. So are the night skies this time of year. Seem so low you’d think you could touch them.

Angel darlin’, I’m still waiting for the “cold snap”. Central Texas doesn’t seem to be going along with the game plan. Lol! But it will shortly, and I’m looking forward to it more than you know. Sheesh, I have so much work to do outside, and I’ve spent the last two months hiding in the house. Our skies are beautiful though. Texas is a bit strange. We don’t have four seasons here. We have three: Slightly cold, warm and hot!

I love autumn–the weather and the color. If only the leaves wouldn’t come down for raking!
We don’t have an fall color here in the D.C. area, but in a few weeks, the area should be gorgeous.

I’m too lazy to educate myself on trackbacks. And it’s difficult to narrow down my best post…I’m so proud of myself! (Naw, not really).
Autumn is one of my all-time favorite seasons. The others in no particular order are Spring, Winter, and Summer.
I just love the changes in the color of the leaves; something we don’t really get here in Los Angeles. There’s a certain sense of melancholy and serene, tired beauty.
And pansy that I am, it reminds me of two Barry Manilow songs: Weekend in New England and When October Goes.
