Humor Me

Here I am, in Ohio, in the northern part of the country, and it's over 90 degrees at the end of September. This week is supposed to be the last week of heat here, and then we should start cooling down. I am doing my best to hold off on fall activities until then because who wants to go apple picking in a heat wave??!! Until the crisp wonderful fall weather gets here, I dream of it.



"Don't you just love New York in the fall? It makes me want to buy school supplies. I would send you a bouquet of newly sharpened pencils if I knew your name and address..." --You've Got Mail (movie)

"Give me the splendid silent sun with all his beams full-dazzling, give me juicy autumnal fruit ripe and red from the orchard." --Walt Whitman

"Autumn is the best season in which to sniff, and to sniff for pleasure, for this is the season of universal pungency." --Bertha Damon

"The heart of autumn must have broken here, and poured its treasure out upon us." --Charlotte Fiske Bates
