Autumn Colors And My Three-Year Blogiversary


I enjoy the colors of Spring, but it's Autumn's colors that I look forward to every year.

Spring colors come more as a Relief from the ravages of Winter. All too often, though, Spring can be a Tease. A flowering tree in blossom doesn't necessarily mean the end of freezing temperatures or snow.


Autumn, at least for me, is more a time of celebration.

By the time the the color of the season arrives football season is in full swing, it's time for the only part of the baseball season worth watching and both basketball and hockey season are kicking off.


I hit golf balls year-round. If I had to choose between playing a round on a warm Spring day or a crisp Fall day I'll play in October any time.

I'm playing much better this time of year, of course, but it's also more interesting playing in the Fall. I don't even mind losing my ball when I can't find it under the fallen leaves. I tend to light a joint and walk around "looking" long enough to smoke it.

I'm happy to grill a steak any time of year. There are more and better foods to go with it during the Fall than in the Spring I think. I also love all the pumpkin products that become available this time of year.


Autumn has been especially good this year. The colors, as you see, have been vibrant and there are still a lot of leaves on the trees.

It's great to see, especially today on my three-year blogiversary. Thanks for stopping by to share it with me.

Now, I'm going out to play golf. Ciao.

I'm a fan of both Spring and Fall - I don't like it too hot, and don't like it too cold. This falls right in between. :)

Happy blogiversary!

Beautiful photos of fall, and a great mental picture of you enjoying the search for a lost golf ball under all the leaves.
