Got the 1st burn in the stove tonight Soup. It had a month and a half rest... OH WELL, 3 days ago it was over 85 here. Leaves are turning and falling.
North of 60 (great username, by the way): Leaves turning just now, here in CT.. Won't be long now. Lots of folks who don't "see" the changes coming will be surprised when it hits, but we wood-burners and outdoorsie types are on the same page!!

That "Fall" smell . . . the colorful foliage . . . bugs are dead or dying . . . perfect temps to work outside on the wood . . . apples in season . . . yeah . . . I agree . . . another great time of year . . . heck I love all the seasons . . . well except for Black Fly Season . . . I'll even tolerate Tourist Season . . . but not Black Fly Season.
The colors, the smells, the wood burning, the apple picking trips..........yep! All That!! I also like teasing the guy at work who thinks the smell of the wood on my clothes "stinks!" I laugh when he tells me that. I wear it like a badge of honor!! (AND I get to remember by the smell, the fire waiting for me when I get home!!)
