Real Autumn

It always seemed, growing up, that the time change from Daylight Savings to Standard was more a seasonal marker than either the first day of fall--since it could often be beach weather, or close to it, after that--or the first day of winter--since we could easily have snow before then.

The time change was often a better divider between the mild, warm days of tennis and playgrounds, and the frosty, short days of fireplaces and fading gardens.

Today we spent a little time driving about with my parents, admiring the fall colours. It's been an amazingly relaxing and wonderful weekend. Here are some pics from today:
