Looks nice. We aren't quite so far along here yet, but it's coming.
I love fall too! It's so amazing! I mean, I thought fall in NC was pretty nice, but sheesh! Ozzy says "Leaves floating" whenever he sees leaves falling off trees (which is pretty often!). The drive to CT was amazing in terms of fall foliage.
I miss the fall in upstate NY, Austin doesn't offer the same breathtaking changes in the leaves. Enjoy!

ooh... i miss that. i can't wait to get to rochester at thanksgiving. i'm hoping there'll be snow like last year.
Julie, thank you for saying that. I don't think I can express how tired I am of folks saying, "Oh, you haven't lived through a winter up here yet, have you?" and then they shake their heads. These comments 1) assume things about me that they can't know, and 2) are not at all helpful. Although I've been quite excited about the winter and the cold and the snow (yes, I have), having folks say these things makes me anxious. Again, not helpful. I'm glad to hear you say you're looking forward to it! Thanks for that.
