The Air is Changing

It isn't just because the calendar now says September. Subtle changes are occuring each day. The air smells different; lighter, crisper. The edges of the leaves have begun to slightly curl as hints of yellow add dimension to the trees. There is pep in many a step as I take notice of the people around me. I think we all know what this means.

Autumn is just about here. To many this is the best of the seasons. In the past, it's been my least favorite. You see, I've never given autumn a chance because to me it's just the beginning of winter, and winter and I have never been friends.

This year I've decided to change my relationship with the crisp season. I plan to admire the colors, breathe deeply, and perhaps even get a little more pep in my step, though for the record, I do consider myself pretty darn peppy...in one of those dark and twisted peppy kind of ways.

I vow to utilize my camera to capture the beautiful scenery around me. I vow to step outside, mug of joe in hand, and take a close look at what the world has to offer. And, of course, I vow to find cool outfits to wear with my favoite boots!

I leave you with this beautiful photo I found online. Picture yourself there and tell me where this path leads...
