Fall its a wonderful time of year . Many things happen at this time of year . One that is foremost in many of memories is it marked the beginning of many things ; the school year ; football season ; first year of college ; for the rural areas a time of harvest and my favorite fresh apple cider is in season .It also marks the the time year to harvest the grapes to make the next vintage of wine . Fall represents so many things to many people .
When I was in Boy Scouts it was the prime camping season leading right up to the first fall of snow .I remember going out to take my dog for walks and play ;I could tell she loved this time year also .Another big thing about fall was the home made relishes ,pickles ,jams and don't forget about the pies .
One great thing about fall was the Sunday drives to check out the changing color's of leaves from the forests among the the farm houses and barns in the country side . Do not leave the the aroma's the emerged from the farm's with live stock . It was all part of the experience . As you drive through these area's you may stop at a farmers market . With all their vegetables some common ; you know the ones you would at the grocery store every day . Then there were the not so ordinary vegetables that you would see . Oh yes the jars of honey , molasses and preserves so varied to the region you were in . You might take a walk in a pumpkin field to pick the one you will carve for Halloween .Their may be a hayride involved in it with hot apple cider and powdered doughnuts afterward .
There is so much that goes on in the fall , the watch party for that big college game ; for me its the Wolverines vs the Buckeyes .GO WOLVERINES ! Some of these games have become such a tradition every thing stops on the day of the game . Oh do not forget our high school homecoming games .
Yes ; the fall represents a change but its a festive one that is to be celebrated .
