The First Day of Autumn


Autumn is once again upon us and yes, it can be a beautiful season.  The trees will explode with leaves of gold and red and yellow.  The air will be crisp and bring thoughts of apple cider, homemade soup and warm quilts. However, in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, Autumn is not always the way you see it on a picture in a calendar.  For instance, this year the leaves are all green although some are trying to burst out into Autumn colors.  The temperatures are bouncing around from low 50s to over 80.  It's as if Summer wants to stay and is giving the new season a fight to remain.  Yes, Autumn is a beautiful season but in this point I am on the side of the season of Summer.  I am rooting for it to hang on as long as possible for I know what is coming after Autumn and I don't like it.
