Fall is my favorite time of year. Winter is nice for the cold days, spring is nice for the flowers, and of course summer is nice for the time off but fall is the most beautiful time of the year for me.

I love when the weather changes. The crisp nights and warm days make it easier to sleep at night. You can turn of the AC in your house and open the windows and let that fresh air come in. You can also turn the AC off in your car and let the cool air flow over you while you drive. The smog or haze that hangs over many cities seems to disappear and we have more clear days.

The colors that emerge during the fall are the most beautiful colors in nature. The yellows, oranges, reds, and browns of a maple tree make you appreciate the changes that take place in nature. I love seeing the trees transform from green to the brilliant fall hues they’ve been hiding all year. When I retire I’ll have to take a road trip to New England in the fall.
